Thought for Today: Sunday May 11

Allow YHVH’s Love to seep into the inner recesses of your being. Do not close off any part of yourself from Him. He knows you inside-out, so, do not try to present a “cleaned-up” of yourself to Him. Wounds that you shut away from the Light of His Love, will fester and become wormy. Secret sins that you hide from Him can split off and develop lives of their own, controlling you without realizing it. Remember, His Love-Light search out and destroys hidden fears.

READINGS FOR OMER COUNT – DAY 22

Behold, I am about to fulfill the affirmative precept of the counting of the Omer, as it is written in the Torah:

“And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the Shabbath, from the day that ye brought the Omer of the wave-offering, seven complete weeks they shall be; until the morrow of the seventh Shabbath shall ye number fifty days.”

Blessed art Thou YHWH, our Elohym, King of the universe, who hast set us apart by Thy commandments and hast given us command concerning the counting of the Omer.

This is the twenty-second day, making three weeks and one day of the Omer.

May the All Merciful restore the service of the Temple to its place. May it be Thy will, YHWH our Elohym and Elohym of our fathers, that the Temple be speedily rebuilt in our days, and grant our portion in Thy Torah. And there we will serve Thee with awe, as in the days of old and as in ancient years.

May Elohym be favorable unto us and bless us. That Thy way may be known upon the earth, Thy salvation among all nations. Let the peoples give thanks unto Thee, Elohym; let all the peoples give thanks unto Thee. Let the nations rejoice and exult: for Thou wilt judge the peoples with equity and lead the nations upon the earth. Let the peoples give thanks unto Thee, Elohym; let all the peoples give thanks unto Thee. The earth hath yielded her increase: Elohym, even our Elohym, shall bless us. Elohym shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him.

READINGS: TEHILLAH 59

Deliver me from my enemies, O my Elohim; Set me on high from those who rise up against me.

Deliver me from the workers of wickedness, And save me from men of blood.

For look, they have lain in wait for my life; Mighty men assemble against me, For no transgression or sin of mine, O YHWH, For no guilt of mine! They run and prepare themselves. Awake to help me, and see!

And You, YHWH Elohim of hosts, Elohim of Yisra’ěl, Awake to punish all the nations; Show no favor to any wicked traitors. Selah.

They return at evening, They howl like a dog, And go around the city.

See, they belch out with their mouth, Swords are in their lips, For who is listening?

But You, YHWH, laugh at them, You mock all the nations.

O my Strength, I wait for You; For Elohim is my strong tower.

My Elohim of mercy, Elohim does go before me. He lets me look upon my enemies.

Do not kill them, lest my people forget; Scatter them by Your power, And bring them down, O YHWH our shield.

The sin of their mouth is the words of their lips, And they are captured in their pride, And for the cursing and lying they utter.

Bring them to an end in wrath, Bring them to an end, That they be no more; And let them know That Elohim is ruling in Ya‛aqoḇ To the ends of the earth. Selah.

And at evening they return, They howl like a dog, And go around the city.

They wander up and down for food, And whine if they are not satisfied.

And I, I sing of Your power; And in the morning I sing aloud of Your mercy; For You have been my strong tower And a refuge in the day of my distress.

O my Strength, to You I sing praises; For Elohim is my strong tower, My Elohim of mercy.

READINGS: TEHILLAH 60

O Elohim, You have rejected us; You have broken us; You have been displeased; Turn back to us!

You have made the earth tremble; You have broken it; Heal its breaches, for it is shaken.

You have let Your people see hardship; You have made us drink the wine of trembling.

You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it might be lifted up Because of the truth. Selah.

That those You love might be rescued, Save with Your right hand and answer me.

Elohim has spoken in His set-apartness, “I exult, I portion out Sheḵem And measure out the Valley of Sukkoth.

“Gil‛aḏ is Mine and Menashsheh is Mine, And Ephrayim is the defense of My head, Yehuḏah is My inscriber.

“Mo’aḇ is My wash-pot, Over Eḏom I cast My shoe, Shout loud, O Philistia, because of Me.”

Who would bring me to the strong city? Who shall lead me to Eḏom?

Have not You, O Elohim, rejected us? And You do not go out, O Elohim, With our armies!

Give us help from distress, For the help of man is naught.

In Elohim we do mightily, And He treads down our adversaries!

READINGS: TEHILLAH 61

Hear my cry, O Elohim, Listen to my prayer.

From the end of the earth I call unto You, When my heart is faint; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

For You have been my refuge, A strong tower in the face of the enemy.

Let me dwell in Your Tent forever, Let me take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah.

For You, O Elohim, have heard my vows; You have given me the inheritance Of those who fear Your Name.

You add days to the days of the king, His years as many generations.

Let him dwell forever before Elohim. Prepare mercy and truth to preserve him!

So I sing praise to Your Name forever, When I pay my vows day by day.

READINGS: TEHILLAH 62

My being finds rest in Elohim alone; From Him is my deliverance.

He alone is my rock and my deliverance, my strong tower; I am not greatly shaken.

How long would you shout at a man? – Murder! – Like a leaning wall, a tottering fence.

They plotted to topple him from his high position; They delight in lies; They bless with their mouth, But in their heart they curse. Selah.

My being, find rest in Elohim alone, Because my expectation is from Him.

He alone is my rock and my deliverance, my strong tower; I am not shaken.

My deliverance and my esteem depend on Elohim; The rock of my strength, my refuge is in Elohim.

Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; Elohim is a refuge for us. Selah.

Sons of Aḏam are but a breath, Sons of men are a lie; If weighed in the scales, They are altogether lighter than breath.

Do not trust in oppression. And do not become vain in robbery; If riches increase, Do not set your heart on them.

Elohim has spoken once, Twice I have heard this: That strength belongs to Elohim.

And mercy is Yours, O YHWH; For You reward each one according to his work.

READINGS: MISHLE 15:18-33

A man of wrath stirs up strife, But he who is patient appeases strife.

The way of a lazy one is like a hedge of thorns, But the way of the straight is a highway.

A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish man despises his mother.

Folly is joy to one lacking heart, But a man of understanding walks straight.

Without counsel, plans go wrong, But by great counsellors they are established.

A man has joy by the answer of his mouth, And how excellent is a word spoken in its season!

The path of life is upward for the wise, To turn away from She’ol below.

YHWH tears down the house of the proud, And He sets up the boundary of the widow.

Evil thoughts are an abomination to YHWH, But pleasant words are clean.

He who is greedy for gain, troubles his own house, But he who hates bribes lives.

The heart of the righteous ponders how to answer, But the mouth of the wrong pours out evil.

YHWH is far from the wrong ones, But He hears the prayer of the righteous.

The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, A excellent report gives marrow to the bones.

An ear that hears the reproof of life Does dwell among the wise.

He who ignores discipline hates himself, But he who listens to reproof gets understanding.

The fear of YHWH is the discipline of wisdom, And before esteem is humility.

READINGS: AVOTH 3:14-15

Rabbi Dosa ben Horkinas said, morning sleep, and midday wine, and children’s talk, and attending the meeting places of the ignorant, drive a man from the world.

Rabbi Elazar of Ha’mudaiy said, he who profanes things sacred, and despises the festivals, and puts his fellow-man to shame in public, and makes void the covenant of Av’raham our father, and makes the Torah bear a meaning other than the right; such a one, even though knowledge of the Torah and mitzvoth be his, has no share in the world to come.
