Lemon Posset
Servings: 10 servings, makes 2 1/2 cups total
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream*
• 2/3 cup granulated sugar
• 5 Tbsp lemon juice from about 3 lemons*
• Lemon slice or berries, optional for serving
Instructions
Boil – In a small saucepan, heat the cream and sugar, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Bring to a boil, then adjust the heat so it doesn’t boil over and keep it at a medium boil for 5 minutes.
Add lemon – Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon juice, then set aside to cool for 15 minutes. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve set over a large measuring cup with a pouring lip.
Fill – Divide the mixture between 6 ramekins or between 10-12 lemon halves* if you prefer to serve it that way. Fill your serving cups about 3/4” full so it sets up properly.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set, then top with whipped cream if desired, along with a lemon slice or berries for garnish.
Notes
*Use HEAVY cream. A lighter cream won’t have the fat content to set up properly. Heavy cream (≥ 36 % fat) is essential for setting.
*Use real lemon juice, not concentrate.
*How to Make Lemon Cups: If you want to serve out of lemon peels, cut 5 to 6 lemons in half lengthwise and spoon out the inside juice and membrane. Reserve the juice for the recipe by mashing the pulp and straining it through a sieve.

Proverbs 30:5-6 NKJV
Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. [6] Do not add to His words, Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.
Every word of God proves true (cf. 2 Sam. 22:31; Ps. 18:30). “Proves true” can also mean “refined” (cf. Ps. 12:6) or “well tried” (Ps. 119:140); the implication is that God’s words are a proven foundation for one’s life. The proverb’s emphasis on every “word” (Hb. ’imrah) underscores the truthfulness, trustworthiness, and reliability of the Bible, not just in its overall message but also of every detail. This verse supplies support for the doctrine of the “plenary” (full, complete) inspiration of Scripture, extending even to “every word.” Thus Prov. 30:6 warns against adding to God’s words. The whole of vv. 2–6 thus teaches that human wisdom is limited, that the wisest people recognize their ignorance, that truth resides in the word of God, and that no one should think he is able to enhance the wisdom that God has given.

I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Oh That I Had Wings Like A Dove
David is the author of Psalm 55, and he bemoans the shocking fact that his own familiar friend, whom he loved and trusted, betrayed him. A trusted companion, with whom David had enjoyed hours of sweet fellowship turned on him and was unimaginably disloyal. David and his bosom companion had spent much time together, in one another's company. They had communed together, fellowshiped together, and walked together in the house of God. No wonder David's heart was in such anguish.
It was not simply a difference of opinion that cause these two friends to go their separate ways. It was not life's circumstances that had caused them to be detached from the close bond that had anchored them together in spirit. This was not a parting of the ways, due to the ebb and flow of life, that so often happens when circumstances dictate that two kindred spirits are separated from one another.
This was a deliberate, premeditated betrayal of a trusted friend, that caused David to cry out, "My heart is in anguish within me. The terrors of death have fallen upon me. Fear and trembling has come upon me. Horror has overwhelmed me." It is no surprise that David cried out in great dismay and deep distress, "Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest."
This man of God longed that he could escape the terrible situation and distressing betrayal of his beloved friend. So shocking was this soul~mate's disloyalty that David would have fled to the desert to find solace. I wonder if David's thoughts travelled back to the wilderness wanderings of the children of Israel, when God provided the comfort and strength his forefathers needed, as they trudged around the desert for 40 years.
I wonder if his thoughts travelled back to the ark of Noah, after the grueling experience of the flood, when a little dove was released through the window of the ark and was the only bird that brought comfort and hope back to Noah and his family, as they waited for the waters of judgement to subside. Perhaps David's mind retreated to the sacrificial offering of two turtledoves that Israel was commanded to perform, on certain high days and holy days.
I wonder if David considered the dove as a symbol of peace, as he reflected on the Spirit of God, Who brooded over the dark waters, in the beginning, and brought order out of chaos... as God spoke the world into being and sustained His creation by the might of His power. I wonder if David had an understanding that the dove would become the most familiar symbol of God's sustaining power, grace, and comfort in the body of Christ.. or if at that moment he simply saw a little dove, fluttering into his courtyard.
I wonder if David knew that the Psalm that he was writing was Messianic. I wonder if he knew it was a signpost that points us to Jesus, and His familiar friend and beloved disciple ~ Judas Iscariot, who would betray the Lord of Glory for thirty pieces of silver. I wonder if David knew that the Psalm he was writing in his deep distress would be a peculiar pointer to great David's greater Son ~ God's Anointed Saviour, Who would be despised and rejected of men ~ a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief ~ so that the fallen race of man could be redeemed by faith.
David wanted to run away from the dire circumstances that caused such deep despair. He wanted to flee far from the person who had caused him such anguish of heart. He wanted the horrors of life that surrounded him, at that time, to be removed far away... but David had to learn that you can't run away from the circumstances of life, you can't escape from those that would do you harm, you can't live in this world and be free from trials and tribulations, you can't fly away to a deserted place and be at rest, for we live in a fallen world, we inhabit a fallen body and we live among a fallen race of fallen creatures.
No! The only place to run is into the arms of Jesus. The only escape is to be positioned in Christ, by faith, and empowered by His Holy Spirit.

The only way to be at rest is to abide in Christ and to have Him abiding in us, every moment of the day ~ as we walk in spirit and truth, as we trust in the Lord with all our heart, as we keep self nailed to the cross, and as we die to self and live for Him.
God bless you all.

When We Are Lonely
On the cross, Christ made it possible for us to enter into a relationship with God—and now we are never alone.
Hebrews 4:14-16
Despite the fact that technology enables us to stay connected with each other, many are still lonely. The real solution for healing the ache of isolation is an intimate relationship with the Lord.
As He was about to create Adam, God said, “Let Us make man in Our image” (Genesis 1:26). Humanity was created to commune with the Father. Adam and Eve had a close bond with the Lord, but their disobedience caused a rift in the relationship. Once sin entered the world through the first couple, every person born would be tainted with it and, consequently, would be separated from God (Isaiah 59:2). Yet because of His love, the Lord planned a way to bridge the gap between Himself and mankind.
Jesus took our transgressions upon Himself when He died at Calvary, wiping away the stain of sin. Whoever trusts in His sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin is able to traverse the gulf bridged by the cross. Each new believer is reconciled—that is, immediately restored to a right relationship with the Lord.
Reconciliation with the Lord means that we are never alone (Deuteronomy 31:6). We may still feel lonely on occasion, but God’s indwelling Holy Spirit (John 14:17) is our constant companion, and He will provide comfort to our heart.
