The flesh is the old life, the natural life inherited from Adam, with its apparent resources of personality, of ancestry, of commitment, of dedication, and so forth. You can do all kinds of religious things in the flesh. The flesh can preach a sermon. The flesh can sing in the choir. The flesh can act as an usher. The flesh can lead people to Christ. Did you know that? The flesh can go out and be very zealous in its witnessing and amass a terribly impressive list of people won to Christ, scalps to hang on a belt. The flesh can do these things but it is absolutely nauseating in the eyes of God. It is merely religious activity. There is nothing wrong with what is being done, but what is terribly wrong is the power being relied upon to do it (Ray Stedman).

INSTRUCTIONS

This is a slight modification of Amy Ahmer's recipe (posted to Fatfree on
11/30/93), which has become one of our family favorites. I couldn't find
Amy's recipe in the archives, so Michelle might want to add this. Amy's
husband called the recipe "guts cause that's what he says it looks like".
Don't let the name put you off -- this is delicious.
Rinse quinoa thoroughly (it will taste bitter if you don't) and cook,
covered, on low heat for 15 minutes in 2 cups boiling water. Stir in
tomatoes and chilis, beans, hominy, herbs and spices and heat thoroughly.
Serve.
You can use fresh onion and garlic, and fresh herbs if you prefer. The
beauty of the recipe above is that it only takes about 20 minutes from
start to table.

A Message from our Provider:

“You’ve never cried alone. Jesus is always there”

When we enjoy God, we enjoy Him in His eternity without any flux… Time is fluid, but eternity is stable; and after many ages, the joys will be as savory and satisfying as if they had been but that moment first tasted by our hungry appetites. When the glory of the Lord shall rise upon you, it shall be so far from ever setting, that after millions of years are expired, as numerous as the sands on the seashore, the sun, in the light of whose countenance you shall live, shall be as bright as at the first appearance; He will be so far from ceasing to flow, that He will flow as strong, as full, as at the first communication of Himself in glory to the creature. God is always vigorous and flourishing; a pure act of life, sparkling new and fresh rays of life and light to the creature, flourishing with a perpetual spring, and contenting the most capacious desire; forming your interest, pleasure, and satisfaction; with an infinite variety, without any change or succession; He will have variety to increase delights, and eternity to perpetuate them; this will be the fruit of the enjoyment of an infinite and eternal God.
