Daily Devotions / Re: Favorite scriptures
Last post by Val - Mar 06, 2025, 08:48 AMRevelation 4:8 (ESV): 8 And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of eyes all around and within, and day and night they never cease to say,
"Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty,
who was and is and is to come!"
Often I will pray this over and over when I'm not sure what to say. When I just want to be with Him and honor Him and draw near. Because I know that the very closest creatures to Him are saying this. I guess I'm just trying to join in to an awesome choir that is close to God because that's where I want to be.
I'll think about the words and what they mean. First and most important is that He is Holy and as you draw near you may discover unconfessed sin and a lack of repentance on your part. So you go to, 1 John 1:9 and make things right.
I'll think about how He was, and is, and is to come. What does that mean. To me, it tells me He is outside of time and able to access and change everything along that timeline and all timelines of every person that ever lived.
I guess that gives rise in me to want to study prophecy because if He said it, it will absolutely come to pass and right when it should. It lets me know that we are not out of control, careening down this road we call future. We are right on schedule and everything happens at the appointed time.
I can take comfort in knowing my future is in Heaven.

Recipes / Pralines (not "Pray-leens".......
Last post by Rhonda - Mar 03, 2025, 07:43 PMPralines
Ingredients:
2 c. pecans
2 c. sweetened shredded coconut 1 1/2 c. granulated sugar
1 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. evaporated milk
1/2 c. light corn syrup
1/2 c. or one stick unsalted butter 1 teas. vanilla extract
1/2 teas. salt
Directions:
In a large saucepot, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar evaporated milk, corn syrup, and unsalted butter. Heat over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until mixture is thoroughly combined and has achieved a uniform consistency.
Allow mixture to reach a boil and maintain it for 4 minutes, while stirring. Remove from burner and immediately add vanilla and salt, mixing well.
Gradually add shredded coconut and pecans to the mixture. Mix well, stirring for at least an additional 3 minutes. The mixture will begin to cool and thicken. Once it is thick enough, drop onto surface covered with wax paper.
Allow to cool to room temperature.
NOTE: It is better to boil slightly longer and to stir slightly longer than not long enough, as the pralines will not harden properly if it has not been long enough.
