Thought for Today: Monday October 25:

Yeshua is your Refuge and strength, an ever-present Help in trouble. Therefore, you don’t need to be afraid of anything – not even cataclysmic circumstances. The media are increasingly devoted to fear-inducing subject matter: terrorism, deaths and killings, environmental catastrophes etc. If you focus on such dangers and forget that Yahuah is your Refuge in all circumstances, you will become increasingly fearful. Every day Yahuah manifest His grace in countless places and situations but the media take no notice. Yahuah shower not only blessings but also outright miracles on this planet. So, as you grow closer to Yahuah, he will open your eyes to see more and more of His Presence all around you. Things that most people hardly notice, like shifting shades of sunlight, fill you with heart-bursting Joy. You have eyes to see and ears that hear, so proclaim His abiding Presence in the world.

If y’all could say a quick prayer for us, we’re having trouble with our computer we use for recording. I don’t think it’s serious, but it’s slowing us down. :Pray:

#readmethebiblegarth now includes Epistle to the Romans 1-3 in Greek with translation, and in the Lawful Literal Version, here: https://youtube.com/playlist?l....ist=PLvpqSEOjm625MyT

Might be heading on another adventure towards there... Dunno how fellowship is looking in Calgary...Shalom

Enjoy!!! ??????

Hello All. I finally deleted FB and made the switch. It’s time to exit Babylon.

Shavua Tov! This coming week's Torah portion is Chayei Sarah, which means "Sarah's life."

This week's Torah portion is filled with gems, so I hardly know where to start. First, we see the deep love that Abraham and Isaac had for their wife and mother. We also see the wonderful story of provision and guidance as Abraham's servant finds a wife for Isaac.

But the Haftarah portion brings out something I never really gave much thought to before. Abraham purchased a piece of real estate in Canaan because he had faith that his descendants would one day inherit all of the land.

He knew he was getting old. He knew he wouldn't see all of YHWH's promises fulfilled first hand.

Yet he acted in faith, purchasing a burial place for Sarah. In those times, you only buried your loved ones in your ancestral homeland. In other words, he was proclaiming to everyone that his homeland was no longer in the East, where his father and brothers lived.

No, his "homeland" was in the Promised Land!

Most of us live outside the land of Israel, too. We get pretty settled here in our countries, and we get wrapped up in politics, in worries for the future, and in patriotism. Yet when we placed our faith in Yeshua, we became citizens of Israel and children of Abraham.

How can we act in faith toward our promised futures? Even if we might not live long enough to see the promises fulfilled (and yet I hope we do!), how can we encourage our children to live as "strangers and exiles" of their current homes and as "heirs of the promise"?
