God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Sometimes a failure to persist in prayer proves that we were not serious about our request in the first place. At other times God wants us to persist in prayer in order to strengthen our faith in Him. Faith would never grow if all prayers were answered immediately. Persistent prayer tends to develop deeper gratitude as well. As the joy of a baby’s birth is greater because of the months of anticipation, so is the joy of an answer to prayer after persistent praying. And as much as a generation that measures time in nanoseconds hates to admit its need for it, God crafts Christlike patience in us when He requires persistence in prayer.

INSTRUCTIONS
COOKIE
CHOCOLATE DIPPING MIXTURE
1. Sift already sifted flour with salt and set aside. In large bowl, cream
butter with electric mixer at medium speed. Add sugar, egg yolk, and
vanilla. Beat until light and fluffy. Gradually add flour and salt mixture
and almonds, mixing until well blended.
2. Shape dough into two logs, each 1 1/2 inches in diameter, and wrap in
wax paper. Refrigerate until firm, at least two hours.
3. Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a cookie sheet. Using a ruler,
mark each log at 1/4 inch intervals. With a sharp thin knife, cut into
slices and put onto prepared cookie sheet, one inch apart.
4. Bake 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from cookie sheet
and cool on rack.
5. Prepare chocolate mixture. In top of double boiler, over hot water,
melt chocolate chips and butter. Stir in hot water.
6. Lay sheet of wax paper on table. Dip half of each cookie into hot
chocolate mixture and put on wax paper.
7. If using sprinkles, dip a few cookies and then sprinkle while chocolate
is still wet. Let dry at least one hour.

A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
