The intent of a man’s heart is deep water, but a man of insight draws it out.
Proverbs 20:5 TLV
Deep waters are a metaphor of something hidden, mysterious, and dangerous. Sometimes a man doesn't even know himself, but another person with good understanding of both the man and human nature might. At other times a man might hide his true intentions, but a person with great discernment will see right through him.
"Behold therefore the goodness, and sharpness of God: toward them which have fallen, sharpness: but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: or else thou shalt also be cut off."
Ro 11

Healing Prayer:
My Adonai and my YHVH, help me to be slow to anger, because I know that the wrath works against Your righteousness in my life and the life of others. Abba, with Your help I will be swift to hear, slow to speak and slow to get angry. I want to be more like You my Adonai and my YHVH, because I know You are always ready to pardon, gracious and merciful. You are slow to anger and You are of great kindness. Help me to void all sinful anger in my life and to never let the sun go down upon my wrath. Give me understanding of Your ways Abba, so that I will be able to be always slow to wrath and never show forth a hasty spirit. Through the power of Your Spirit I will put away all malice, bitterness, wrath, anger and evil speaking from my life. For it is my desire to be kind, tender-hearted and forgiving towards others even as You Abba have forgiven me for Moshiach's sake. Thank You my Adonai and my YHVH, for enabling me to cease from inappropriate expression of anger and to forsake wrath. I believe all the promises of Your Word. Set a watch before my lips and help me to bridle my tongue. Fill me with Ruach HaKodesh, so that the fruit of the Spirit will sweeten all of my responses and relationships with your love, peace, joy, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Thank You Abba. In the mighty Name of Yeshua I pray, amen.

Throwback to last winter when we had over a foot of snow for the first time in years. I can't wait for winter to return and hope we get just as much snow this year
Good Morning Torah Crew!
Jude 1:3, “ Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.” In this letter Jude, wanted to write of salvation and instead urges the readers to strive for the faith once delivered. Jude is reminding them to do the things that Moses had written because they were using grace as an excuse to sin. What message are we now offering to others — the faith once delivered or a faith filled with excuses?
