God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Pastoral ministry is always shaped, formed, directed, and driven by worship. Your ministry will be shaped by worship of God or worship of you or, for most of us, a troubling mix of both. Perhaps there is no more powerful, seductive, and deceitful temptation in ministry than self-glory. Perhaps in ministry there is no more potent intoxicant than the praise of men, and there is no more dangerous form of drunkenness than to be drunk with your own glory. It has the power to reduce you to shocking self-righteousness and inapproachability.

Paul David Tripp

How astonishing is it that a Person who is blessed forever and is infinitely and essentially happy should endure the greatest sufferings that ever were endured on earth! That a Person who is the supreme Lord and Judge of the world should be arraigned and should stand at the judgment seat of mortal worms and then be condemned. That a Person who is the living God and the fountain of life should be put to death. That a Person who created the world and gives life to all His creatures should be put to death by His own creatures. That a Person of infinite majesty and glory, and so the object of the love, praises and adoration of angels, should be mocked and spit upon by the vilest of men. That a Person infinitely good and who is love itself should suffer the greatest cruelty. That Person who is infinitely beloved of the Father should be put to inexpressible anguish under His own Father’s wrath. That He who is the King of heaven, who has heaven for His throne and earth for His footstool, should be buried in the prison of the grave. How wonderful is this! And yet this is the way that God’s wisdom has fixed upon as the way of sinners’ salvation, as neither unsuitable nor dishonorable to Christ.

Jonathan Edwards

Cooking By Sandra Woodruff
1. Combine the oat bran and buttermilk in a medium sized bowl. Stir to mix
well, and set aside for 15 mins.
2. Combine the flour and baking soda in a large bowl, and stir to mix well.
Add the oat bran mixture, honey, and egg whites and stir just until the dry
ingredients are moistened. Fold in the apricots or prunes or raisins.
3. Coat muffin cups with cooking spray, and fill 3/4 full with the batter.
Bake at 350 F for about 16 to 20 mins, or just until a wooden toothpick
inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
4. Remove the muffin tins from the oven, and allow them to sit for 5 mins
before removing the muffins. Serve warm or at room temperature. These are
really yummy, I just baked these this weekend. Very easy to make.
