When we think about the law in the Old Testament, many get confused by the traditions. Of the 613 commands written through Moses, the heavy majority are specifically for the Levitical priesthood. The purpose for the more stringent regulations was to ensure that the people leading a nation to worship would be less inclined to sin. But people are still people, we should choose our worship leaders carefully and hold them accountable to a higher standard. Then we hold each other and ourselves accountable to live the way we are designed to live.

Shalom Shalom family ?

Hebrews 4:16
Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Our Heavenly Father thank You for inviting us into Your presence each day to experience Your power and Glory.  Thank You that we are able to approach Your throne boldly and in supplication. Please equip us with the soft and  gentle Holy Spirit and cover us in Your garment. Your Spirit fills our innermost being and give us the strength to walk in wholeness. Thank You for  being gracious toward us, giving us Mercy beyond measure.  Oh YHVH our Elohim Adonai Your Shalom surround us and surpasses all comprehension. Thank You for awakening our hearts to love one another. Please defend us against attacks of fear and anxiety. Please guard us against lies and discouragements. Please renew our faith and increase our trust to keep on standing on all Your promises. We pray that the eyes of our hearts may be enlightened in order that You may complete Your purpose.  Our Heavenly Father who is incomparably great, exerted in mighty strength, we pray that You bring all injustice to bow before Your Name.  In every decision, in every trial, in every hardship, help us  by increasing our dependence  knowing we are not alone.   Please bless  the work of our hands and labour, filling each need with Your  compassion. Please bless our spouses with love an understanding to meet each day with a newness in You. Please bless us and  our children with courage ,endurance filled  with eagerness to be more and more like Yeshua HaMashiach, Your son and our Saviour. Let Thy Kingdom come and will be done on earth as in heaven, please give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses against Thee and others. Amein

Be blessed and stay blessed ?

Okuwa-Tsire, also known as “Cloud Bird,” of the San Ildefonso Pueblo. 1905. Smiles can be kind of rare in old photos, cameras weren't exactly convenient back then. But every now and then you come across a photo like this that touches your heart in a special way. ?
