Do not sink in the mud-cake of despair , but serve it with cream and strawberries

Hi everyone, I got requests to keep writing, so here I am again.

And what sort of week have I had? Definately a chocolate mud cake week, thats for sure. Mud such as quick sand made me sink deeply into self-pity and distrust. Yes that's right guys, when you "gnaw on the bone of worry" instead of "chewing on the cud of scripture", disaster surely happens. Distrust is a sinaster thing and it can create havoc in your relationships with everyone around you. When I recognised this, I chose to throw it in the bin . So the mudcake was served at dinner tonight with strawberries and cream .

"Trust and obey, for there is no other way to be happy with Jesus , but to trust and obey."

Here is the recipe , remember to serve it with strawberries and the cream . Otherwise you will just be miserable.
