Heavenly Recipe: Jerky Salsa Chili

Jerky Salsa Chili
Hi There! I wanted to share a quick and fun recipe with you today that the Lord gave me this month and the reason I wanted to share it was because it is a helpful dish for anyone that is on the road a lot in the ministry  - whether evangelism or deputation, etc. PLUS for the rest of you dear ones, it's a great chili to make for those who like to go camping! This recipe contains no raw meats or veggies, so that's why it is wonderful for the traveler, because you can still have a healthy and tasty meal, even without your whole kitchen. I was thrilled at how tasty it was to use beef jerky in my chili and my family was too and it's even cheaper to make than regular chili recipes! So here's how it goes:

 - 1 package of hormone/preservative free beef or turkey jerky - I used a hickory smoked jerky with GREAT results (tear the jerky in small pieces - it will rehydrate and soften during the cooking)
- 1 can of organic sweet corn, undrained - my husband likes corn in his chili - it's optional 😉
- 1 can of organic kidney beans, undrained
- 1 can of organic pinto beans, undrained
- 1 large 16oz can of organic diced tomatoes - you can mash these down a little if you like a less chunky tomato
- 1 8 oz jar of favorite organic salsa - whatever heat you like - we used Aldi's organic medium salsa

  Because the salsa contains all the other veggies like the peppers, onion, and garlic already, you don't have to chop and saute' anything - and the jerky has plenty of salt too; which is why it's such a great recipe for the road! Combine all the ingredients in your pot/crockpot and let simmer for at least 1 hour and the results are so flavorful and delicious! We paired it with a lime tortilla chip, which was an excellent combo! You can also easily adjust the amounts of this chili to how many people you need to feed! I hope this recipe proves helpful to some of you and if you know someone who is on the road a lot, please pass this along to them. I love God's recipes! They are the BEST! 😊

Senses Secured

RISE AND SHINE FOR JESUS! By Pam Iannello (my late mother) "Senses Secured" Proverbs 7:1-5 (KJV) My son, keep my words , and lay up my commandments with thee. [2] Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye . [3] Bind them upon thy fingers , write them upon the table of thine heart . [4] Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman : [5] That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words . As I studied this portion of scripture I was heavily struck with the importance of having our senses saturated with the Word of God. You see, sexual sin often begins with unguarded eyes, hands, and hearts… And knowing that the rest of this chapter vividly deals with the unhealthy situation that occurred between a simple young man and a strange woman, it is no wonder that the Lord opens the story with strong scriptural advice! Truly, it is a perfect text to teach young ...

One Day At A Time

I wanted to send you this poem today, and I remember it sitting on my mother's desk for many years before she died. She was always encouraged by this poem and I hope you will be encouraged with its truths along with me... "One Day at a Time" One day at a time, with its failures and fears, With its hurts and mistakes, with its weakness and tears, With its portion of pain and its burden of care; One day at a time we must meet and must bear. One day at a time to be patient and strong, To be calm under trial and sweet under wrong; Then its toiling shall pass and its sorrow shall cease; It shall darken and die, and the night shall bring peace. One day at a time - but the day is so long, And the heart is not brave, and soul is not strong, O Thou pitiful Christ, be Thou near all the way; Give courage and patience and strength  for the day. Swift cometh His answer, so clear and so sweet; "Yea, I will be with thee, thy troubles to m...

Haynes Family Prayer Letter - October 2018

October 2018 Dear Supporting Churches and Friends, Got some good news to report in from this past month.  First, I will tell you about a great project which Justine is doing  for two orphanages in Rome. A while back, somebody gifted Justine about 100 skeins of yarn (that’s one of those yarn thingies for all you guys out there).  Justine was praying about using the yarn to make something on a large scale for a group of people, but also using it to get the Gospel of our Lord Jesus to that specific group .  One of Justine’s heroes is Dorcas because she made garments for the poor as her ministry, which ultimately brought Glory to God when Peter raised her from the dead in Acts 9.  Justine got in touch with an orphanage in Rome which currently has 80 kids living there. Justine explained everything to the director and they were THRILLED about handmade scarves and gave us the “green light” to send everything.  T...
