God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Most people hope to go to heaven when they die. This is not surprising, given the generally acknowledged alternatives (either hell or nothingness). However, it is quite revealing to ask people what they hope to do when they get to heaven. Most people anticipate the joys of this world writ large: golf courses with no sand traps or water hazards, heavenly mansions with no worries about mortgage payments. If they could have all of those things without leaving this planet, they would be more than content. Christians, however, long for heaven because they long to be in the nearer presence of the God whom they love with all their hearts, joining in the unstinted, eternal worship of the Lamb.

INSTRUCTIONS
Stir warm milk and sugar together. Add yeast. Let stand 10 minutes. Stir
well. Add flour; beat well. Add milk, sugar and egg. Beat until smooth.
Add butter; beat and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, place the 4 cups of
flour and the chilled butter. Cut butter into flour until pieces are the
size of beans (not too small). Pour the liquid batter into the flour
mixture; stir until moistened. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Remove from refrigerator.
Press into a compact ball on a floured board and divide into 4 parts. Roll
each into a circle 12" or 16". Cut each circle into 6 or 8 pie-shaped
wedges. For each croissant roll a wedge towards the point. Shape into a
crescent and place on ungreased baking sheet. Let rise at room temperature
until doubled. (May take 2 hours or more). Brush each with egg beaten with
cold water. Preheat oven to 400 F. Place croissants in oven. Lower
temperature to 350 F and bake for 15 - 20 minutes until golden. Makes 24 -
32.
