Double-hot Chile Steaks

One day as I was passing into the field…this sentence fell upon my soul. Thy righteousness is in heaven. And…I saw with the eyes of my soul Jesus Christ at God’s right hand; there, I say, was my righteousness; so that wherever I was, or whatever I was doing, God could not say of me, he [lacks] my righteousness, for that was just before him. I also saw, moreover, that it was not my good frame of heart that made my righteousness better, nor yet my bad frame that made my righteousness worse, for my righteousness was Jesus Christ himself, “The same yesterday, today, and forever” (Heb. 13:8). Now did my chains fall off my legs indeed. I was loosed from my afflictions and irons; my temptations also fled away; so that from that time those dreadful scriptures of God left off to trouble me; now went I also home rejoicing for the grace and love of God.

INSTRUCTIONS

In blender or food processor, combine ground chile, tomatoes, chiles,
onion, garlic, salt, oregano & cumin. Process until pureed. If made
ahead, refrigerate. To prepare steak, let both steak & sauce come to
room temperature. Place steak in shallow dish, coat generously on  both
sides with sauce & let stand 2 hours at room temperature,  spooning
more sauce over steak occasionally. Preheat broiler or  prepare bed of
hot coals. Adjust oven rack so meat will be 4-6 inches  below heat or
grill 4-6 inches above coals. Lightly grease rack or  grill.
Broil/grill steak (with sauce that clings to it) to desired  doneness,
turning once; allow 10-15 minutes per side for medium-rare.  Serve with
additional sauce, warmed over low heat. Makes 8 servings.  From the

A Message from our Provider:

“If thankfulness does not move us to serve God, then we do not truly understand who our God is and what He has done in our behalf. Without gratitude for Christ’s sacrificial love, our duty will become nothing more than drudgery and our God nothing more than a dissatisfied boss. #Bryan Chapell”
