Everywhere I go lately I seem to bump into people who are going through dark moments in their lives. Life is sometimes very hard.
Often questions like "Where is God?" or "How could God allow this to happen?" are mentioned... I've even asked these questions myself at times.
Hope...
I am loving "Jesus Culture" at the moment, especially this song "Your Love Never Fails".
Listen to the words... I pray you may find hope in the darkness.
I have really fond memories of shortbread... my grandmother used to make it a lot, and she usually had the Scottish emblem of a thistle imprinted on each one.
Here is my favourite Shortbread recipe (from the Edmond's Cookery Book). Be warned, although there are not many ingredients in shortbread, there is a lot of butter!
Shortbread
250g butter, softened
1 cup icing sugar
1 cup cornflour
2 cups plain flour
Cream butter and icing sugar until light and fluffy. Sift cornflour and flour together. Mix sifted ingredients into creamed mixture. Knead well. On a lightly floured board roll out to 0.5 cm thickness. Shape into a circle or cut into pieces. Place on a greased oven tray. Prick with a fork. Bake at 150 deg C for 30 minutes or until pale golden.
Makes about 30.
