Sage And Onion Chowder – We Love God!

Feelings of sorrow alone aren't necessarily conviction. We can be sorrowful for many reasons, including selfish ones. We can be sorry for the bad consequences of our sin, sorry we were caught, sorry we lost someone's respect. The kind of worldly grief can't begin to address the true offense of sin, and it can't begin to change us [see 2 Cor. 7:8-9]. Only godly grief brings repentance. And only repentance testifies to the surgical effect of God's truth applied to our sinful hearts.

INSTRUCTIONS

Here is the recipe I mentioned the other day. I don't know how it
tastes with bacon, but it's incredible with the smooked goose. It is  a
very rich and filling soup, perfect for cold weather.  "Classic Potato
Dishes", Edited by Lisa Dyer (Parragon - ISBN  0-7525-2340-6)  1 . Melt
the butter or margarine in a large saucepan and fry the  onions and
garlic very gently for about 15 min. until soft but not  colored.  2 .
Add the chopped bacon (smoked goose) and continue to fry for a  few
min. allowing the onions to color a little. Stir in the flour and  cook
for a further minute or so.  3 . Add the stock and bring to the boil.
Then add the potatoes and  seasoning and simmer gently for 20 min.  4 .
Add the milk and sweetcorn and bring back to the boil, then add  the
sage and vinegar and simmer for a further 10-15 min. until the
potatoes are very tender but not broken up.  5 . Adjust the seasoning,
garnish with sprigs of sage and serve while  hot with warmed bread.
