Name: Pineapple Sorbet

Temptation, in and of itself, is not sin. This is critically important, especially for those who suffer from an overly sensitive and tender conscience. Jesus was repeatedly tempted (Heb. 2:17-18; 4:15; Mt. 4), but he was sinless. We must resist thinking that we are sub-Christian or sub-spiritual simply because we are frequently tempted. It was the great reformer Martin Luther who first said, “You can't prevent the birds from flying over your head, but you can keep them from building a nest in your hair.” His point is that a temptation only becomes a sin when you acquiesce to it, as it were “fondle” it and “enjoy” it.

In medium saucepan, combine sugar and water. Stir well, and bring to boil.

pineapple into 1-inch chunks. Measure about 2 cups. In food processor
fitted with steel blade, puree 2 cups pineapple chunks until smooth, about
45 seconds. With machine running, pour in half of hot syrup within 15
seconds. Process 30 seconds. Transfer puree to mixing bowl. Repeat,

shallow baking pans, dividing evenly. Cover with plastic and freeze until

Return to freezer until 3/4 firm, then process another 2 minutes. Pack into
airtight container and freeze until firm enough to scoop or spoon, 4 to 6
hours.

“We need to discover all over again that worship is natural to the Christian, as it was to the godly Israelites who wrote the psalms, and that the habit of celebrating the greatness and graciousness of God yields an endless flow of thankfulness, joy, and zeal. #J.I. Packer”
