Dirt Dessert
The lady from a church asked for one of our favorite recipes and why. I was all too happy to share, but I had to first contact friends in Georgia to get the recipe...
One of my favorite desserts is called “Dirt Dessert” and here's why it reminds me of my hero, JESUS CHRIST.
We all are made from dirt and will return to dirt, because GOD created the dirt, the water, the air, the very molecules that comprise all humanity. In fact, so far, Earth is still the only place in the universe to contain massive amounts of water necessary to support human life. Many are now rethinking theories like the 'Big Bang' and 'millions of years'. Because they have now realized that the probability of the earth and all that it contains, defies all odds of random processes. In fact many of today's 'modern sciences' are proving evolution to be wrong! What is so sad is that school textbooks are still in the dark ages! Computer science through probability has proven evolution is impossible. Forensic science has proven evolution couldn't have happen. Genetic science has proven all humanity came from a common set of parents not millions of years ago but only thousands! We also know through the study of computer DNA that apes, chimps, and monkeys are not even closely related to humans. Even though some try to report it as a 5% difference when in fact the percentage is much larger than that! Talk about obfuscating the evidence! Chemical science has proven a young age of the earth. Geology and the fossil record support a young earth, finding huge amounts of evidence for a global flood even over a mile below the earth's surface. The list goes on and on reminding us of the scripture that says...
GOD's handiwork is throughout all creation!
OK enough preaching! The Oreos remind me of Christians who are born again through the blood of JESUS. We have the pure white stuffing inside because GOD has chosen to dwell in human temples who receive and believe in HIM. Yet, we still have a sin nature on the outside of this regenerated heart, just like the Oreo cookie has the black on the outside. The cool whip is placed on top reminding me that because of what JESUS did, GOD makes our sins as white as snow.
The Dirt Dessert is made in layers of crumbled Oreos and cool whip laid down over and over again. This reminds me of our walk with GOD and how HE lovingly takes us and molds us in HIS image IE: the white layer of cool whip. We stumble and fall IE: the layer of broken Oreos. We seek forgiveness and HE cleanses us once again! The Old Testament has repeated layers of Israel seeking GOD, then back sliding, getting disciplined, then seeking GOD again and so on.
Storing the dessert in the refrigerator cools it and reminds me of being on this cold harsh world with so much evil and darkness,. But alas, we don't stay there, we are taken into the light and warmth of our CREATOR to bring HIM pleasure forever to ENJOY!
