We Love God!

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

We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed!

INGREDIENTS

1 1/4 c Slivered almonds; lightly toasted
2/3 c Sugar
2 Eggs
1 tb Butter or margarine; softened
12 Sheets commercial frozen phyllo pastry; thawed
1/2 c Butter or margarine; melted
1/3 c Sugar
1/3 c Water
3 tb Honey
1 ts Lemon juice

INSTRUCTIONS

Position knife blade in food processor bowl. Add almonds; top with cover,
and process 50 seconds or until finely ground. Remove and set aside 3
tablespoons ground almonds. Add 2/3 cup sugar, eggs, and 1 tablespoon
butter to almonds remaining in processor bowl; process until blended, and
set aside.
Place 1 sheet of phyllo on a damp towel (keep remaining phyllo covered).
Lightly brush phyllo with melted butter; fold in half lengthwise. Brush
again with butter, and spread about 1 1/2 tablespoons ground almond mixture
down length of phyllo, leaving a 2-inch margin on 1 long side and a 1-inch
margin on other 3 sides. Fold all margins of pastry over filling. Roll
phyllo jellyroll fashion, starting with side with 2-inch margin. Wind strip
loosely into a coil, and tuck end under coil. Place on a lightly greased
baking sheet. Brush with melted butter. Repeat with remaining phyllo and
almond mixture.
Bake at 375°F for 16 minutes or until pastry is golden brown. Gently
transfer to wire racks.
Combine 1/3 cup sugar, water, honey, and lemon juice; bring to a boil, and
boil 4 minutes. Let cool slightly.
Drizzle half of honey mixture over warm pastries; sprinkle with reserved 3
tablespoons ground almonds, and drizzle remaining honey mixture over
almonds. Serve pastries warm or cool.
Yield: 1 dozen.
