God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Some believers are very surprised when they are called to suffer. They thought they would do some great thing for God, but all God permits them to do is to suffer. Just suppose you could speak with those who have gone to be with the Lord; everyone has a different story, yet everyone has a tale of suffering. One was persecuted by family and friends...another was inflicted with pain and disease, neglected by the world...another was bereaved of children...another had all these afflictions. But you will notice that though the water was deep, they all have reached the other side. Not one of them blames God for the road He led them; “Salvation” is their only cry. Are there any of you, dear children, murmuring at your lot? Do not sin against God. This is the way God leads all His redeemed ones.
Nothing is more needed among preachers today than that we should have the courage to shake ourselves free from the thousand and one trivialities in which we are asked to waste our time and strength, and resolutely return to the apostolic ideal which made necessary the office of the pastorate. (We must resolve that) we will continue steadfastly in prayer, and in the ministry of the Word.
Combine the first seven ingredients in a bowl and stir well. Spoon sweet

chilled margarine with a pastry blender or 2 knives until the mixture
resembles coarse meal. Stir in the chopped pecans, and sprinkle over the
sweet potato mixture. Bake at 350F for 30 minutes. Serving size = 1/2 cup.
