Think on These Things #16 ~ Psalm 37:3

This past Wednesday evening, we had our end-of-year Community Group Bible study with a barbecue dinner.  Everyone brought a dish to share and we had a great time eating and chatting with each other outside on the patio.

The timing worked and we were joined by dear missionary friends who shared their work in Bangladesh.

 Evaluating the many blessings and the difficulties over the past couple of years with the many projects they oversee, Psalm 37:3  is the verse that has been encouraging them as they Point People to the Provider.

their prayer... that we understand God's will,
gain spiritual wisdom.
please and honor God,
bear good fruit,
grow in knowing God,
be filled with God's strength,
have endurance and patience,
remain joyful in Christ, and
give thanks always.
(prayer taken from Colossians 1:9-18)

PRINT RECIPE
Serves 12

Ingredients

2 pounds rhubarb, sliced crosswise 3/4 inch thick
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, combine rhubarb, sugar, and 1/4 cup flour; set aside.

In the bowl of a food processor, combine remaining 1/2 cup flour and the butter. Pulse until the butter pieces are pea-size. Add brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon. Pulse to combine. Sprinkle over rhubarb.

Bake until rhubarb is tender and topping is golden, 35 to 45 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream, if desired.

Recipe Note:
I was a little short on rhubarb and added about ½ cup blueberries to total 2 pounds.
I baked closer to 45 minutes for the crisp to become bubbly and nicely golden.
