We Love God!

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

Some people are kind, polite, and sweet-spirited - until you try to sit in their pews.

INSTRUCTIONS

Place dates in a mixing bowl and add boiling water. Let stand until fairly

baking soda and baking powder into mixture. Add nuts. Stir until well

Comments: This is very New York. There was a chain of quick eating houses
in Manhattan called Chock Full O' Nuts, and years ago this was one of their
specialties. It is totally simple. Cream cheese is mixed with chopped
walnuts and spread on slices of date-nut bread. If you don't know what
date-nut bread is, or if you cannot find it in your local supermarket, this
recipe is teriffic.
