A Methodist (Christian) is one who loves the Lord his God with all his heart, with all his soul, with all his mind, and with all his strength. God is the joy of his heart, and the desire of his soul, which is continually crying, 'Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth whom I desire besides thee.' My God and my all! 'Thou art the strength of my heart, and my portion forever.' He is therefore happy in God; yea, always happy, as having in him a well of water springing up unto everlasting life, and over-flowing his soul with peace and joy. Perfect love living now cast out fear, he rejoices evermore. Yea, his joy is full, and all his bones cry out, 'Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his abundant mercy, hath begotten me again unto a living hope of an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, reserved in heaven for me.

John Wesley

INSTRUCTIONS

FOR CAKE
FOR GLAZE
Recipe by: St. Louis Post-Dispatch 8/14/95 To prepare cake: Rub butter
generously on bottom and sides of a Bundt cake pan. Add flour and turn to
coat all surfaces. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine apples with 2 cups
water and lemon juice. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, sift together
granulated and brown sugars, 3 cups sifted flour, baking soda, salt,
cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Add vanilla, oil and eggs; mix well. Spoon
soaked apples into batter, so that some of the soaking liquid is included
for moistness. Fold in nuts. Bake on low oven rack for 1 hour, 15 minutes
or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Cool cake in
pan 10 minutes, then turn out onto cake rack. When cake has cooled, prepare
glaze: In a small saucepan with heavy bottom, combine butter, granulated
sugar, brown sugar and cream. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly,
until slightly thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool
5 minutes. Stir in vanilla. Pour glaze over cake. Garnish as desired with
nut halves. Yield: 12 to 16 servings. Recipe from: Dotty Griffith, who
writes for The Dallas Morning News.
