Since then Christ is praying for us, whom should we fear? And since He has promised to make us more than conquerors, of whom should we be afraid? No, though an host of demons are lined up against us, let us not be afraid; though the hottest persecution should rise up against us, yet let us put our trust in God. Even though Satan, and the rest of his apostate spirits, are powerful, when compared with us; yet, if put in competition with the Almighty, they are as weak as the smallest worms. God has them all reserved in chains of darkness until the final judgment day. They shall only go as far as He permits them, and no farther.

Try this in the summer when you can find the teensy, tiny finger-size
summer squash, still with blossoms attached (yellow crookneck or zucchini).
Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet, then add onion & garlic. Cook until
lightly tinged with brown. Add squash & tomatoes; stir-fry rapidly,
sprinkling with chiles, caribe, salt, oregano & cumin. Cook just until
squash are tender-crisp to bite & brighter in color. Sprinkle with cheeses;
turn off heat, cover pan & let cheeses melt. Then serve immediately. Makes
4 to 6 servings.
