God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Therefore, since salvation is a work of the Lord, I can draw these simple conclusions: First, I must share the Gospel with passion. Yet when it comes to conversion I need to leave the matter in God’s hands because that is a work that only He can accomplish. Second, my responsibility is not to save people, but rather my responsibility is to faithfully share the “good news.” Therefore, I don’t need to resort to gimmicks or manipulation, but rather prayer and trust in God’s sovereignty. It is not the skill of the proclaimer, the packaging of the message or the techniques used to proclaim it, but the unadulterated Word and trust in the Holy Spirit. We need clarity, not cleverness. Third, once I share the faith, I can be at peace regarding the eternal outcome of souls and am I thankful for that!
To say that worship is either about glorifying God or finding personal satisfaction is to put asunder what God has joined together. His glory and your gladness are not separate tracks moving in opposite directions. Rather His glory is in your gladness in Him.
OPTIONAL FLAVORINGS
Boil water & sugar together until dissolved & clear. Turn off heat. Slowly
add instant coffee & continue stirring. When well mixed let cool to room
temperature. While the coffee mixture cools, add vanilla bean to the vodka.
When the coffee mixture is cooled add to the vodka mixture. Cover tightly &
shake vigorously each day for 3 weeks. Strain & filter.
Yield: About 4 cups
Dona & Mel have this to say about Kahlua:
The Mexican "Kahlua" & Jamaican "Tia Maria" are probably the best known
coffee flavored liqueurs. Other companies produce similar drinks called
Moka, Mocha, Creme de Mocha, & so forth. Coffee is among the easiest
flavors to simulate. We recieved many recipes from our friends that varied
only slightly from one another. It seemed that everyone had made a version
of "Kahlua" at one time & treasured his own recipe.
VARIATION: Substitute rum for the vodka to yeild a simulated "Tia Maria".
Substitute brandy for the vodka for another simulated "Kahlua".

Chris' Notes: I like to use the vodka version with a pinch of cardamom.
Experimenting with this recipe I have found that instead of throwing out a
partial pot of coffee, save it in a tightly covered container in the fridge
until you get 2 cups worth. Then use it in place of the water & delete the
instant coffee. (Very FRUGAL considering the price of good coffee these
days!)
