Tuesday - The Problem of Authority

John 5:26-27 (NKJV)

 For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.

Thought For The Day:

There is no joy or strength or peace in the Christian life until we accept Christ’s Authority…

Today is “Tender Tuesday” we are more compassionate and understanding about the struggles we all have on losing weight and feeling good about ourselves so with that it makes our hearts a little more tender hearted….. Always remember each one teach one!!! We are helpers of one another!!! Have a Wonderful Day!! J

Honey Grapefruit Salad

Pie is a traditional staple in most any holiday-geared household, but let’s be honest, whoever has room for it? This traditional French dessert is light, full of Clean 15-approved grapefruit, and spiked with a little Grand Marnier to make things interesting. Follow the link for the original recipe in French from Le Figaro, or reference the English translation below.

Ingredients:

2 red grapefruits, 1 grapefruit, 3 oranges, 4 tablespoons of honey, 1 lime, 1 tablespoon of Grand Marnier, 2 sprigs of fresh mint

Recipe:

Wash the fruit and zest one orange and the lime. Juice the oranges and the lime and pour it into a pot with the zest. Add the honey and one sprig of mint. Bring the mixture to a boil, remove the mint and set your sauce aside.

Peel the grapefruit, cut them into quarters and put them in a large bowl. Add the sauce and the Grand Marnier. Refrigerate and serve decorated with mint leaves.
