Day By Day: RECIPES

Day by Day

Aren't you glad that
God takes care of us
"Day By Day"?

Day by day and with each passing moment,
Strength I find to meet my trials here;
Trusting in my Father's wise bestowment,
I've no cause for worry or for fear.
He whose heart is kind beyond all measure
Gives unto each day what He deems best
Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure,
Mingling toil with peace and rest.

Ev'ry day the Lord Himself is near me
With a special mercy for each hour;
All my cares He fain would bear, and cheer me,
He whose name is Counsellor and Pow'r.
The protection of His child and treasure
Is a charge that on Himself He laid;
"As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,"
This the pledge to me He made.

Help me then in ev'ry tribulation,
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,
That I lose not faith's sweet consolation
Offered me within Thy holy Word.
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,
E'er to take, as from a father's hand,
One by one, they days, the moments fleeting,
Till I reach the Promised Land.

Here's an awesome recipe that my family likes:

Homemade Salsa

1 can Rotel tomatoes (do not drain)
1 can shoe peg white corn (drain)
1 can black beans (drain)
1/2 c. chopped onions
1/4 c. chopped cilantro
Juice from 1 lime (save)

Combine all the ingredients and top with lime juice. The longer it is refrigerated before serving, the better it will taste.

Serve with lime flavored tortilla chips! Yumm!

My life's verse is: ~Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. (5) In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. (6)

These two verses really were lived with John's bout with cancer!; May 29, 2008 11:57 AM

__________________________________________________
Melt margerine works as well as melted butter but the melted butter makes the butter tarts taste better.

Can be made without walnuts but is best with walnuts.; July 27, 2009 7:34 PM
