Food on Fridays with Ann

On that first Good Friday, from about the sixth hour to the ninth hour, darkness came over all the land.

About the ninth hour, Jesus cried out “‘Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?’—which means, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?‘” Not long after, He cried out again and gave up His spirit.

When Jesus’ followers, friends and family heard Him say “It is finished,” they must have assumed that was the end.

How dark it must have felt.

Dark as night.

But in Jesus was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness…

And night turned to day on Sunday morning.

Night & Day Cookies

1 cup butter, softened

1 cup brown sugar, packed

1 cup sugar

2 tsp. vanilla extract

2/3 cup baking cocoa

2 eggs

1 tsp. baking soda

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups white chocolate chips

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Cream butter, sugars and vanilla until fluffy; blend in cocoa, eggs and baking soda. Add flour; mix well. Fold in chips; shape dough into 1-1/2 inch balls. Place 3-inches apart on greased baking sheets; bake at 325 degrees for 14 to 16 minutes. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; transfer to wire cooling racks.

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord. (Ephesians 5: 8-10)

May you walk in the light of Christ as you contemplate His sacrifice.
