God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Fly from all occasions of temptation, and if still tempted, fly further still. If there is no escape possible, then have done with running away and show a bold face and take the two-edged sword of the Spirit. Some temptations must be taken by the throat as David killed the lion; others must be stifled as David hugged the bear to death. Some you had better keep to yourselves and not give air. Shut them up as a scorpion in a bottle. Scorpions in such confinement die soon, but if allowed out for a crawl and then put back into the bottle and corked down, they will live a long while and give you trouble. Keep the cork on your temptations, and they will die of themselves.
We have no right to murmur at sickness, and repine at its presence in the world. We ought rather to thank God for it. It is God’s witness. It is the soul’s adviser. It is an awakener to the conscience. It is a purifier to the heart. Surely I have a right to tell you that sickness is a blessing and not a curse, a help and not an injury, a gain and not a loss, a friend and not a foe to mankind. So long as we have a world wherein there is sin, it is a mercy that it is a world wherein there is sickness.
You may use commercial or home made cranberry sauce but not
artifically sweetened sauce (muffins will not rise.) . Original
recipe in The Lighthearted Cookbook by Anne Lindsay published in 1988
in Canada used whole-wheat flour, and 1/2 cup buttermilk or low-fat
plain yogurt rather than sour milk.
1/12 original recipe - 156 calories, 1 starch, 1 fat, 1 fruit choice 5
grams fat, 2 grams protein, 27 grams carbohydrate, 23 mg cholesterol,
126 mg sodium NOTE: listed ingredients & variations would be
slightly different.
Preheat oven to 400 F and spray at least 12 muffin cups lined with
paper baking cups. Low-fat muffins tend to stick even to non-stick
pans.
Measure 1/2 tbsp lemon juice in a measuring cup, fill to about 1/4
cup mark with fluid milk and add some skim milk powder to make it a
little thicker. Set aside.
Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.
Add remaining ingredients of your choice and stir until they are just
combined. Bake about 20 minutes or until lightly browned and firm to
the touch. Adjust time if muffins are made smaller.
VARIATIONS, substitute for cranberry: Banana-Date - use 1 cup mashed
banana and 1/2 cup dates or raisins. If 2 bananas are not quite 1 cup,
concentrated orange juice or orange/pineapple may be added. (Tested
Jan 94 by Elizabeth Rodier, family member ate 2 warm ones.)
Apple-Raisin - 1 cup applesauce plus 1/2 cup raisins, or coarsely
chop an unpeeled apple in a food processor.
Zucchini - 1 cup grated unpeeled zucchini plus 1/2 cup raisins.
May be made as 16-18 small muffins or 9 inch square cake cut in the
desired number of pieces. For a diabetic meal plan, reduce the
amount of sugar to 1/4 cup or 1 tsp. per serving (recommended
guideline of American Diabetes Assoc.)
This recipe is typical of healthy heart recipes with reduced sodium,
cholesterol and fat but more sugar than a typical diabetic recipe.

A Message from our Provider:
“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
