Sometimes the devil doesn't tempt us with evil; sometimes he allures us with good, distracts us with obligations, confuses us with compromise, or hinders us with business to keep us from that which is best- service to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Remember, the devil always offers his best, before Christ will offer His will for your life.

  1. Mix flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together in an 9x13-inch ungreased pan. Make 3 depressions in flour mixture; pour oil into one, vinegar into second, and vanilla into third. Pour water over all, then whisk until well blended and resembling cake batter.
