Name: Turkish Bean Salad
Ingredients: 2 c Drained cooked white beans, warm or at room temperature; 1 c Thinly sliced red onions; 1/2 c Chopped fresh parsley; 1/4 c Finely chopped green bell pepper; 1/4 c Finely chopped red bell pepper; 2 tb Fresh lemon juice; 1/2 ts Salt; Freshly ground black pepper to taste; 4 c Torn lettuce leaves; Lemon slices, garnish

Consider God’s faithfulness to His promises: We learn that all things do work together for good (Rom. 8:28). We learn that God will never leave us nor forsake us (Heb. 13:5). We learn that nothing will separate us from the love of Christ (Rom. 8:35). We learn to walk by faith and not by sight (2 Cor. 5:7). We learn to trust in God’s character and not our circumstances. We learn no detail of our life is outside His loving purpose and sovereign control. We learn His solution far surpasses our most creative imagination. We learn God is often closest when we least feel His presence. We learn Hebrews 10:23 which calls us to “hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.”
