We have failed to understand that children and young people are not God-lovers until the Spirit changes them. They are dead to God. Our attempts at getting these young people to “pray the prayer” when they were small have not necessarily made them children of God. Their behavior belies the true state of their hearts. God has said that the only hope for them, therefore, is the regenerating work of the Spirit in the context of the preaching of the Word (James 1:18). However, our inadequate view of depravity and the inability of man has led us to resort instead to a greater confidence in entertainment to reach them and a minimizing of the use of the Word. If God has ordained that the Word and the Spirit are the only hope for these kids, then we should not avoid the means God has promised to bless.

In a saucepan, slowly heat milk to approximately 200 F. Remove from fire
and add lavender.  Allow to steep for 15 minutes. Strain milk through
cheesecloth while warm. Add crystallized ginger and sugar to milk. Place
egg yolks into a small bowl; then put half the mixture from saucepan into
the bowl to blend.  Stir mixture with a spoon and pour back into the
saucepan. Place over low heat and cook until mixture is approximately 200
F.  Add 2 cups cold heavy whipping cream and place into refrigerator until
well chilled. Process in any ice cream machine. During the last few minutes
of ice cream processing, sprinkle individual lavender flowers (stripped
from lower heads) into the ice cream so they will be whipped into it. Makes
