Thought for Today: Tuesday November 19
There is no possibility of happiness until we have established friendship, fellowship and a true relationship with YHVH. And there is no possibility of establishing this fellow- and friendship apart from the Cross of His Son, Yeshua Moshiach. So, why is this? Because only through Moshiach’s death on the Cross, can we be forgiven and reconciled to Elohiym. It is if an accounting entry is made in the books of heaven, declaring us righteous for Moshiach’s sake. The Divine Bookkeeper cancels our debts!

[If you listen to your father's instruction and maintain a relationship of love and faithfulness] you will find favor and good success in the sight of God and man.
Proverbs 3:4
Yeshua exemplified this principle. He learned to keep his Father's commandments from a young age and grew in favor with God and man. See Luke 2:52. This is also reflected in the criteria that Paul gave for selecting overseers of a congregation in 1 Timothy 3:1-7.
All people, good and bad, admire a healthy relationship between father and son.
And he made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time when women go out to draw water.
#genesis 24:11
Wells appear to have been a common courtship venue in Scripture, Ye Olde Watering Hole. Like the city gates, they were probably natural gathering places and the organic seeds of local markets. If you wanted to find information about a local resident or amenities, you would go to the city gates or the town well.
One Hebrew word for well is 'ayin', which also means 'eye'. In the story of Rebekah's betrothal in Genesis 24 there are two wells. Eliezer finds Rebekah at the "well/eye of water" and then brings her to Isaac at the "well of the One who sees".
