In the darkest night of the soul, Christians have something to hold onto that Job never knew – we know Christ crucified. Christians have learned that when there seems to be no other evidence of God’s love, they cannot escape the cross. “He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all – how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things?” (Rom. 8:32)… When we suffer there will sometimes be mystery. Will there also be faith? Yes. If our attention is focused more on the cross and on the God of the cross than on the suffering itself.

RASPBERRY SAUCE
Place chocolate in a double boiler and heat over hot water until it melts.
Stir to blend and let cool to room temperature.
With an electric mixer, blend cheese and sugar until smooth. Mix in eggs,
vanilla, and sour cream.  Stir in melted chocolate. NOTE: it is important
to have the cheesecake ingredients and the melted chocolate close to the
same temperature when they are combined so that they blend together
smoothly.  Pour into a greased 9-inch springform pan. Bake in the middle of
a preheated 325F oven for 25 minutes or until just barely set. Turn off the
oven, leave the door ajar, and let cool in oven for 1 hour longer. Chill.
Just before serving, dust cocoa through a sieve making a ring around the
cheesecake.
Prepare raspberry sauce:  Reserve 1/2 cup raspberries for garnish. In a
blender, puree the remaining berries and push through a sieve. Stir in
sugar to taste. To serve, spoon raspberry sauce on to desert plates. Remove
pan sides of cheesecake and cut into wedges. Place on raspberry sauce and
garnish with berries. Cheesecake: 31 Fantastic Recipes Lou Seibert Pappas
