We should not assume that, because God promises to provide a way out of temptation, we have no role in our own rescue. God always provides a way of escape, but He may also require great effort from us. We take advantage of the way of escape God provides by exerting every resource He gives us to fight the enemy… To increase our faith and strengthen our character, God more often allows us to escape temptation by using the means of grace always available to us: conscientiously seeking God’s power and instruction through prayer, meditation on His Word, and the counsel of mature Christians are never passive endeavors.

INSTRUCTIONS

FOR THE BUTTER
*Note: Lobster stock should be made from shells and heads, then heavily
reduced to make 3-4 tablespoons.
Scale, gut and wipe the fish.  Rub the inside cavity with salt. If you have
a fish kettle, steam the salmon whole over boiling water for 30-35 minutes
(making sure the water is kept topped up).  Or wrap the fish in lightly
oiled foil and bake it in the oven for an hour at 325 F (170 C) gas mark 3.
Leave it to rest while you make the butter.
Warm the lemon juice in a small basin over a saucepan of simmering water.
Beat in the nuggets of cold butter, adding more as each one melts. Do this
gently ~ it can split if you overheat it (revive it with a quick splash of
cold water).  When you have an unctuous smooth sauce like thin cream, sieve
and whisk in the green goo from the head of the lobster - which immediately
turns the butter a wonderful orange-pink.
Serve the salmon when it is just cool but still sweet-flavoured and full of
its own juices, with piping hot baked potatoes and warm lobster butter.
