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

To be like Jesus Christ in relationship to your wife is an enormous order to fill. You are to be the head of your home, including your wife, just as Christ is the head of the church. When you fail, you not only fail your wife, you also fail to represent your Lord’s love for His church. That is why your task is such a solemn one. When you fail to reflect Him in your marriage, you damage His name. You are called to show forth Jesus Christ by the leadership that you exercise in your home.

Citing Psalm 118:22, Peter said [in Acts 4], “He is the stone which was rejected by you, the builders, but which became the chief corner stone.” So in quoting this prophecy about Jesus, Peter is declaring that the most important piece of God’s revelation to man was rejected by the very people who should have seen Him most clearly and esteemed Him most profoundly! But it was God the Father who saw God the Son rejected by His own people. He saw the Son crucified on a cross, thrown away like a rejected stone on a killing hill called Calvary. And it was God the Father who refused to leave His Son in an old dusty tomb and picked Him up, raised Him from the dead and put Him in the most important place as the corner stone. That is why we read in Philippians 2, “For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (Phil. 2:9-11).

Red Beans W/pecans And Saffron Over Spaghe

January 29, 2023

CATEGORY	CUISINE	TAG	YIELD
Grains		Pasta	4	Servings

INGREDIENTS

1		small red beans
		Pecan halves
		Dry red wine
		Saffron
		Oregano
		Thyme
		Black pepper
		Olive oil
		Garlic

INSTRUCTIONS

Drain a small can of red beans. (Pintos may substitute.) Save the
juice in a small bowl and add a small amount of crumbled saffron to  it
so it marinates. Not too much, you want the taste to be subtle,  not
dominant.  Saute garlic in olive oil for a little bit, along with pecan
halves  and some crushed red chiles.  Add the drained beans and cook so
the flavors mingle. Add quite a bit  of oregano and less thyme and a
pinch of black pepper. Add some dry  red wine, don't be too shy.  Add
in the saffron-flavored bean liquid and cook a few more minutes.  The
consistency should be thin but not like soup.  Serve over whole wheat
spaghetti. Brown rice might also work.
