God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
We pilgrims walk the tightrope between earth and heaven, feeling trapped in time, yet with eternity beating in our hearts. Our unsatisfied sense of exile is not to be solved or fixed while here on earth. Our pain and longings make sure we will never be content, but that’s good: it is to our benefit that we do not grow comfortable in a world destined for decay.

INSTRUCTIONS
Note: I often use less sugar (1C) or no sugar if I am using the apple
butter in cooking. Hubby likes it made with the full amount for his morning
toast
Put applesauce and sugar in crockpot. (If using artificial sweetener do not
add to mixture until after the butter is done and cooled) Cook until about
half the original volume. I usually cook on high during day and low at
night. With my crockpot on my last batch I used high for 3 hours, low for 9
hours and high again for 8 hours. There is nothing magic about the timing
sequence. I add the seasoning in the last half hour of cooking. This makes
about 6 cups.
If your crockpot is too small for all the applesauce, use what you can and
add the rest after it has cooked down for a while.
I keep some in a jar in the frig and freeze the rest in small packets to
use later. You can also pour the apple butter when hot in steralized jars
and seal.

A Message from our Provider:
“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
