Our wills must be broken to His will. To be broken is the beginning of revival. It is painful, it is humiliating, it is the only way. It is being ‘Not I, but Christ,’ and a ‘C’ is a bent ‘I.’ The Lord Jesus cannot live in us fully and reveal Himself through us until the proud self within us is broken. This simply means that the hard unyielding self, which justifies itself, wants its own way, stands up for its rights, and seeks its own glory, at last bows its head to God's will, admits it’s wrong, gives up its own way to Jesus, surrenders its rights and discards its own glory – that the Lord Jesus might have all and be all. In other words, it is dying to self and self-attitudes.

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine wine, ginger & caribe. Set aside. With sharp knife, pierce roast
about 1-inch deep all over. Insert sliver of garlic in each gash. Set roast
in ovenproof glass roasting dish & top with onion. Drizzle marinade all
over roast. Let stand at room temperature at least 2 hours (6-8 hours if
time allows), basting frequently. Preheat oven to 450. Drain marinade &
reserve for basting. Glaze roast with jelly, smoothing evenly all over
surface. Wrap bacon slices around roast, laying them adjacent to each
other. Fasten bacon with skewers or tie with heavy cooking twine. Roast 15
minutes or until bacon starts to crisp. Reduce oven to 325, continue to
roast to desired doneness, basting every 15 minutes with reserved marinade.
Allow about 12 minutes per pound for rare. Check for doneness by piercing
with a sharp knife. (Make cut in bottom of roast to avoid marring its
appearance). Remember that game meats are inherently dry, so they are most
tender when roasted rare or medium-rare. Cooking beyond medium stage makes
for very dry meat. When venison is done to your liking, let rest at least
30 minutes to let juices settle. Cut in slices across the grain, cutting
through bacon so each slice is encircled with bacon. Cut slices 1/4 to 1/2
inch thick, depending on the tenderness of the meat; as a rule, the tougher
the meat is, the thinner the slices should be. Makes 6 servings.
