Name: Roasted Almonds
Ingredients: 1 c Whole Almonds; Shelled; 1/2 c Water; 1/2 c Sugar

No plan of God’s can be thwarted; when He acts, no one can reverse it; no one can hold back His hand or bring Him to account for His actions. God does as He pleases, only as He pleases, and works out every event to bring about the accomplishment of His will. Such a bare unqualified statement of the sovereignty of God would terrify us if that were all we knew about God. But God is not only sovereign, He is perfect in love and infinite in wisdom.

INGREDIENTS

1	c	Whole Almonds; Shelled
1/2	c	Water
1/2	c	Sugar

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Combine almonds, sugar and water in a heavy skillet.
2. Place over medium heat and stir constantly.
3. After about 5 minutes, the sugar will crystallize and stick to the
almonds.
4. Keep on cooking and stirring until this sugar liquefies, making the
almonds shiny brown all over.
5. Pour onto a large baking sheet and quickly separate nuts as much as
possible with a pair of forks which have beed dipped in oil.
6. When nuts are cold, store in a jar with a tight fitting lid.
These are better made in small batches. Do not try to double amounts.
NOTES :      This recipe came from Czechoslovakia with a refugee family
many years ago.

A Message from our Provider:

“Jesus Christ! The answer is on everyone’s lips”

There's not one door in the world closed where you want to witness for Jesus...Show me a closed door and I will tell you how you can get in I won't however, promise you a way to get out...Jesus didn't say, "Go if the doors are open," because they weren't. He didn't say, "Go if you have an invitation or a red carpet treatment." He said, "Go," because people needed his Word...We need a new approach to missions - an aggressive, experimental, evangelical, no-holds-barred approach...A pioneering spirit... I'm afraid we'll have to go through a deep valley of need and threatening situations, blood baths; but we'll get there. God will take away what hinders us if we mean business. If we say, "Lord, at any cost" - and people should never pray that unless they truly want God to take them at their word - He will answer. Which is scary. But we have to go through the process. This is how it has worked in the Bible for the last two thousand years. So we face potentially hard times, and we have to go through that...We play church and we play Christianity. And we aren't even aware we are lukewarm...We should have to pay a price for our faith. Read 2 Timothy 3:12: "Indeed, all who want to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted." The church has been much purified in countries where there was lot of pressure...All I can say is to be ready.
