God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
[The preacher's] aim, rather, will be to stand under Scripture, not over it, and to allow it, so to speak, to talk through him, delivering what is not so much his message as its. In our preaching, that is what should always be happening. In his obituary of the great German conductor, Otto Klemperer, Neville Cardus spoke of the way in which Klemperer 'set the music in motion,' maintaining throughout a deliberately anonymous, self-effacing style in order that the musical notes might articulate themselves in their own integrity through him. So it must be in preaching; Scripture itself must do all the talking, and the preacher's task is simply to 'set the Bible in motion.'

INSTRUCTIONS
In a mixing bowl, cream peanut butter and butter. Fold in coconut, nuts and
1 cup of the confectioners' sugar and mix well. Sprinkle confectioner's
sugar on a board to keep candy mixture from sticking. Turn candy mix onto
the board and knead in enough of the remaining sugar for the mixture to
hold its shape. Shape mixture into small egg shaped pieces. Cover and chill
for about 1 hour. In a double boiler over hot water melt chocolate chips
and shortening, stir until smooth. Dip eggs into the chocolate and place on
waxed paper to harden. Chill. Makes approximately 2 dozen eggs.
NOTE: For a pretty look, the eggs can be decorated with sprinkles or other
candies.
My Mom made these eggs for years and they have become a tradition in my
family.
