Ginger Ice Tea Recipe

Summer is coming and then ice tea will be very tasty again. If you are entertaining it may be well worth serving something a little different. To start making this ginger ice tea recipe you have to start with making 2 cups of very strong tea. To boil the two cups of water to make the tea with one of the Bodum Mini Ibis Electric Water Kettles will come in very handy.

Ingredients for your ginger ice tea recipe:

• 2 Cups of very strong tea
• 2 Cups of any kind of ginger soda (such as Ginger Ale)
• 4 Strips of pineapple
• Crushed ice

Method:

1. Place some crushed ice in four glasses
2. Mix the cold tea and ginger soda
3. Pour over the ice in the glasses
4. Decorate each by placing a strip of pineapple in each.

The glasses for this drink should not be too large. You will have w cups of liquid and the crushed ice. If you use too much crushed ice it will weaken the drink too much and will make it tasteless. If the tea is too strong for our taste you can of course add a little more of the ginger soda.

What Is A Thinking Prayer?

What is a thinking prayer? Do we even know that there is something like a thinking prayer?

I pondered this and then at a prayer meeting found these great ideas to help me keep focused when I'm praying and to give my prayers structure. Keeping these points in mind gives my prayers structure and helps me to pray with a purpose.

A thinking prayer can be thought of as a "circle."

This means that you end where you started:

This is also a formula that can be used with great success if you are thinking about Starting A prayer Group

• Start with praise
• Declare your dependence on God
• Become quiet
• Confession
• Bible Study and praying the word
• Commitment to do as God says
• Intercession let God's kingdom come
• Pour out your needs to God
• Thanks giving
• Stay alert
• Get wisdom from God
• End with praise

This is not a set formula, but it is a way to keep my prayers structured and to keep my mind on God and the Holy Spirit while I'm praying.

Remember:

Romans 8:26 (The Message)

Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God's Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don't know how or what to pray, it doesn't matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans.
