TRUE PRAYER MUST BE AFLAME. . .

I really liked this quote on prayer . . . True prayer must be aflame. The Christian life and character need to be on fire. Lack of spiritual heat creates more unbelief than lack of faith does. If man is not wholly interested in the things of heaven, he is not interested in them at all. The fiery souls are those who conquer in the day of battle. by E.M.Bounds

JESUS

God inspired me to write this poem a while ago:

Like the song says. . .

He's an awesome God!

His shoulders are sooo broad.

He'll neither leave nor forsake;

His love is not fake.

My needs he did and does supply;

Jesus will never lie.

I can trust him with all my heart,

each day that I start.

God is my only true hope;

While drowning in live's trials, I can grasp his rope.

With great deliverance he rescues me,

causing Satan to flee.

Oh how I Love him!,

who takes care of my every whim.

What a great name;

He's always the same. . .

BEEF STIR FRY and FRIED APPLE & ONIONS RECIPES

Yesterday I had my son over for supper and just had some left-overs from Monday's supper.

This is what I made:

BEEF STIR FRY Ingredients: 1 lb hamburger/beef..........1/2 cup of frozen corn 1 cup water..........................2 cups of cooked rice 1 cup frozen beans............salt 1 stick of celery..............cayenne pepper 6-8 baby carrots................1/2 - 1 tsp powdered ginger 1/2 onion At medium heat, fry hamburger or if you prefer sliced beef continually stirring until browned, then add water, frozen green beans, onion cut up in 1/2" pieces, celery & carrots thickly sliced & frozen corn; bring to boil and barely cook with the lid on (no more than 10 minutes). When they are somewhat cooked, turn burner to medium high and add rice and stir-fry until the water evaporates. Sprinkle salt, cayenne pepper till it tastes good and last of all powdered ginger(this also needs to be according to your taste). While you are cooking the above veggies below is the fried Apple & Onion you can cut up and start frying. Once the ingredients are put in pan to fry, you probably want to add the rice and stuff to the above and stir both recipes alternatively. FRIED APPLES & ONIONS

.

Ingredients: 1 medium onion 1 medium sweet apple 2 teaspoons of honey 1/2 - 1 tsp of curry powder (depending on taste) 1 tbsp of butter/shortening Melt butter/shortening in small to medium pan at a medium heat. Into preheated pan, put 1 inch cubes of cut onion. Cut apple in segments and cut off peels and seeds. Then cut in approx. 1 inch chunks and also throw in pan. Stir. Add honey and sprinkle 1/2 tsp of curry and fry until onion is transparent stirring occasionally. Taste. If you think it needs more curry then add it until it tastes to your liking. When both recipes are done, quickly make a salad to accompany the meal and serve. It should feed about 4 people with the salad.

Hope you enjoy it! C :)

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

These 4 people are being used of God and are going to be used by him. . .

WHITE FISH MELT with link to "myrecipes.com" here

.

Yesterday I cooked this excellent recipe that I made up with some white fish--I can't think what kind it was, but was it good!

INGREDIENTS: Frozen White fish ....Salt Stewed tomatoes ......Pepper Onion ................Italian Seasoning or Oregano Celery ...............Marble Cheese

I preheated the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and put 4 pieces of frozen deboned fish on a glass baking pan. Then I spread about 1 cup of mashed stewed tomatoes, from the can, onto the fish. Next I thinly sliced 1 stick of celery and 1/2 of a medium quartered onion on top of the tomatoes. This was seasoned with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. If I didn't have Italian Seasoning, I'd have seasoned it with oregano. Last and not least, I sliced some marble cheese about 1/16 of an inch thick and totally covered the top. After baking it for about 3/4 of an hour, I took it out of the oven and served it with these delicious scallop potatoes from Safeway's and mixed veggies.

WHAT A MEAL! The fish NICELY took on the flavor of the additions.

.

PS If you are going to cooked thawed fish, only bake for 20 - 30 minutes, depending on thickness.

TROUBLES?. . .

When we walk close TO Jesus,

our troubles are small. When we walk far FROM Jesus,

our troubles are BIG. When we GIVE our troubles TO Jesus,

HE carries them. When we keep our troubles FROM Jesus,

WE carry them. Cast ALL your cares UPON him.

His yoke IS EASY and his burden IS light!!!
