We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

What the Church needs today is not more machinery or better [machinery], not new organizations or more and novel methods, but men whom the Holy Ghost can use, men of prayer, men mighty in prayer. The Holy Ghost does not flow through methods, but through men. He does not come on machinery, but on men. He does not anoint plans, but men, men of prayer.
E.M. Bounds

Augustine rightly said, 'Fear is the response of the human heart when its one thing is threatened.' God has blessed all of our lives with many good things. We are to enjoy them and acknowledge God in gratitude, but we dare not make these good things our 'one thing', for in doing so, they become idols in our hearts. Like Augustine said, when we foolishly make these good things our one thing, fear will result when they are threatened. As a matter of fact, fear, worry, and anxiety are a good indication that we have created idols and feel in danger of losing them. Therefore, Christ's goal is to pull our heart away from these false gods and place our heart on the true God. Do you remember how Jesus praised Mary over Martha? Why? Because she chose God as her one thing. 'But the Lord answered and said to her, ';Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things [and they were good things!]; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her ';' (Lk. 10:41-42). So when God is our one thing, we never need to fear because our one thing is never threatened nor will He ever be removed from our presence.

INSTRUCTIONS

FOR THE TOPPING
FOR THE FILLING
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
To make the topping, measure the flour, polenta, sugar, salt, baking
powder, and aniseeds into a food processor or a stand mixer fitted
with a paddle attachment. Add the butter and pulseor mix on
medium-low speed until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Transfer
the mixture to a bowl and make a well in the center. Pour the egg
into the well and toss the egg and flour together lightly and
thoroughly with you fingers until evenly mixed. The mixture will not
adhere in the manner of a dough, but will clump together if pressed
in your palm. Set aside until needed.
To make the filling, combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and
toss well until well mixed. Turn into a 2-quart shallow baking dish.
Sprinkle the topping over the filling in a even layer. Do not press
down. Place the dish on a baking sheet to catch the drips and place
in the oven.
Bake until the juices are bubbling up around the topping and the top
is crisp, and golden brown, about 1 hour. Serve with ice cream if
desired.
