This week has been my first week of really focusing in on the Torah Portion. I've tried to keep up with it before but, our overall life wasn't consistent and we were struggling with having too much on our plates. This season, I am committing to more open time- less on the schedule, more time without a to-do list and more time for our kids to move about freely. Because of this, I was able to take time to check out The Rooted Kafe and find their Torah Portion audio recording. I share this because I turned it on over my bluetooth speaker, while we were cleaning up the house yesterday and, as it concluded, my 6 year old son said, "I really like that." and it made my heart happy. This afternoon, my 14 year old son reluctantly began the Teen Torah Time on Zoom and it only took about 20 minutes (and him telling me he had no idea what they were talking about before I reminded him that he needed to open his own Bible) to actually get into the flow of it.
Torah isn't hard. It isn't inconvenient. It isn't even 'too mature' for kids. You just need to normalize it for the WHOLE FAMILY and watch everyone learn and grow in His word! <3
And all Israel, sojourner as well as native born, with their elders and officers and their judges, stood on opposite sides of the ark before the Levitical priests who carried the ark of the covenant of YHWH, half of them in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, just as Moses the servant of YHWH had commanded at the first, to bless the people of Israel.
Joshua 8:33
All of God's people--men, women, and children--are accountable for their obedience to his law and will participate in the curses and blessings that accompany national disobedience and obedience. In the final judgment, however, fathers won't pay for the sins of their children and vice versa. Each person builds his own house out of stubble or gold as he chooses.
Thought for Today: Thursday September 8:
May you be motivated to exercise, organize and prioritize. May you embrace the grace to tend to the important things so they don’t become urgent things. May YHVH bless you with focus, clarity and inspiration to live an anointed and purposeful life starting today. May abundant grace and startling clarity be yours from today.
