Surely we only have to be realistic and honest with ourselves to know how regularly we need to turn to the Bible. How often do we face problems, temptation, and pressure? Every day! Then how often do we need instruction, guidance and greater encouragement? Every day! To catch all these felt needs up into an even greater issue, how often do we need to see God’s face, hear his voice, feel his touch, know his power? The answer to all these questions is the same: every day!

* Prune Butter is another recipe in this book, and is meant to be used as a
substitute for all kinds of fat in baked goods.  It is not available
commerically without added sweetener, but 1 c of it can be made in a food
processor with 8 oz pitted prunes and 6 tb water or fruit juice (I used
apple juice in the batch I made for this recipe).
The Chef's Comments: "Last week, I made the Prune Butter, and decided to
try it out with one of the recipes in the book. This bread was good the
first night, but I wrapped it up and tried it again later in the week, and
it was terrible. It didn't have the stamina of other quickbreads, I guess."
