Exodus 22:22, “You shall not oppress any widow, or fatherless child. This is the time of year that many people begin fundraising for charity. I will encourage you to pray before you give. Remember it is not just during the winter holidays that people are hungry or cold. Give carefully also, know where you money is going. We are constantly building relationships with people who care for the widows and fatherless. If you are looking to give a little from the heart and not a great amount for a tax exemption…. please consider letting us put you in contact with some of our friends. Your money will go directly to the people who need it the most.

Thought for Today: Shabbat November 12:
May you learn to rest in the Goodness of YHVH. When you are tempted to worry about your loved ones, may you instead rejoice that your Saviour is in their midst with an earnest Love, deep Compassion, and profound Wisdom. He longs to be gracious to them and show them His Lovingkindness. May you feel free to exhale your worries and breathe in His Promises because they are true, and they are for you. It is time to refuse angst and remember that He is Adonai Eloheinu, He is Good, and He cares about every detail of your life
Psalm 119:137-144 New International Version
צ Tsadhe
137 You are righteous, Lord,
and your laws are right.
138 The statutes you have laid down are righteous;
they are fully trustworthy.
139 My zeal wears me out,
for my enemies ignore your words.
140 Your promises have been thoroughly tested,
and your servant loves them.
141 Though I am lowly and despised,
I do not forget your precepts.
142 Your righteousness is everlasting
and your law is true.
143 Trouble and distress have come upon me,
but your commands give me delight.
144 Your statutes are always righteous;
give me understanding that I may live.
Building fences for yourself--safeguards and boundaries that keep you from getting into situations that lead to temptation--can be very helpful if you *want* to do what's right. However, if you're looking for trouble, those fences won't protect you.
