Hi, Rhy! Hope you had a restful shabbat. Just wanted to bring one thing up since Lupercalia is on Wed. The heart symbol comes from that pagan festival. It doesn't represent real love, but rather, lust. It's a symbol made to look like a pubic mound. I am grateful you have made the emoji's bigger so I can easily hit thumbs up instead of one I don't mean to. It's made a big difference! Do some research on lupercalia and pagan symbolism. You may be shocked by what you find. You may find a check mark or something else is more appropriate for a set apart site. I just thought maybe you're unaware. Whatever you decide, I'm content with thumbs up & smileys .

Moreover, you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet yarns; you shall make them with cherubim skillfully worked into them.
Exodus 26:1
There are ten curtains of the tabernacle in this verse. Perhaps because we are to be clothed in the Ten Commandments? IDK. Unlike our own clothing, the Mishkan's covering was made of interwoven wool and linen. Torah forbids wearing clothes made of a linen/wool mixture.

There are actually four types of "voices" which we hear speaking to us and it is important that we learn to distinguish each one so that we are able to discern the true voice of YHVH:
1 -- The voice that is perhaps the most obvious is our own voice. In addition to our speaking voice, we also talk to ourselves inside our heads, we see images and pictures inside our heads, we have emotions and feelings and desires and so on. Our minds tell us what we think, our wills tell us what we want and our emotions tell us how we feel. The Bible refers to our minds, wills and emotions as our "flesh nature".
2 -- Another type of voice which clamours for our attention is the "voice" of other people. Sometimes people say things which are true, noble and good and sometimes people say things which are just the opposite.
3 -- The third type of voice is the "voice" of the devil. The devil has crafty ways of speaking to us which he has perfected over the millennia. He does not appear before us in a red, cloven-hoofed suit and speak out loud to us, he is much more subtle than that. What he does is to throw thoughts into our minds like flaming arrows and he speaks to us through the worldly ideas and viewpoints that he has injected into other people.
4 -- The fourth and final type of voice is the most important, but it is also the most subtle. It is the voice of YHVH. YHVH does not speak to us in our minds, He speaks to us in our spirits because that is where the Holy Spirit lives.
Unfortunately, we tend to spend most of our thought life in our heads, in other words in "the mind of the flesh" (Romans 8:7, AMP), focused on the sensory world around us where our physical senses and our thoughts, feelings, desires and emotions are constantly being bombarded and stimulated in worldly, carnal, fleshly ways. We tend to live on the shallow surface, so to speak, rarely venturing deeper where the Spirit of YHVH lives within us. The result is that many of us do not know where our spirits are nor how to hear and be led by our spirits. Because of this we leave ourselves wide open to fall for the many deceptions of the devil.
In order to hear YHVH's voice and to discern His leading for your daily life, there is one key point that you need to be aware of. If you can grab hold of this one key point then you'll be hearing from YHVH in no time! Here it is:
Don't expect YHVH to speak to you in a sensational, spectacular, supernatural way!
You see, we have a natural tendency to want YHVH to speak out loud to us in some obvious way so that we know that it was Him and so that we know what we are supposed to do. YHVH occasionally does speak to people in "the audible voice of YHVH" or in some other sensational way, but those are not His usual ways of speaking to us.
Why? Because YHVH is into faith and without faith it is impossible to please Him (Hebrews 11:6). The thing about faith is that it requires that we don't have all of our questions answered! If YHVH were to speak out loud to us all the time so that we know it is YHVH speaking to us, then we wouldn't need faith to hear Him.
On the other hand, if YHVH speaks so softly to us that we need to get into the habit of listening closely to our spirits and drawing closer to YHVH in order to hear Him better, then there is a lot of faith involved and it requires cultivating a deeper, more personal, more intimate relationship with Adonai. This is exactly what YHVH is after!
The plain and simple fact is that YHVH usually speaks to us in such a quiet, non-spectacular way that we are almost never going to be 100% certain that we heard Him speaking to us and we just need to get used to that. Once we get past the "hang up" of needing to hear from YHVH in spectacular, loud, supernatural ways, then we will find ourselves beginning to recognize the still, small voice which He usually uses.
For example, have you ever done something that bothered your conscience? Deep down inside you knew that it was wrong, but how did you know? It was because there is something way down inside of us that knows when something is right or wrong. Somehow our "knower" knows these things and it bothers our conscience when we do things that our "knower" knows is not right. This "knower" which we sense way down deep inside of us is where YHVH often tends to speak to us. There is nothing spectacular about it, there is nothing sensational about it. It is the still, small voice of YHVH.

"God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou art but a dead man, for the woman which thou hast taken; for she is a man’s wife.
But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, Lord, wilt thou slay also a righteous nation? Said he not unto me, She is my sister? and she, even she herself said, He is my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my hands have I done this.
And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touch her. Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine.
...
So Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bare children. For Yahweh had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham’s wife."
Ge 20
So, something I didn't notice until a friend pointed it out to me: "Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart..." and "...Abimelech, and his wife...".
Abimelech had a wife, and took Sarah to also be his wife, and God said that Abimelech took another wife in the integrity of his heart: because he didn't know she was married, it was innocent according to God's direct statement. I hadn't noticed this, though I had read this Scripture several times - someone still had to point it out to me. But it's obvious once it's pointed out. Kind of embarrassed I hadn't seen it before. 🙃
Thank God for brothers and sisters in Christ who help each other learn the Scriptures!
How do you know something is real if you can’t see it or feel it or hear it smell it or taste it? Psalm 34:8, “Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!” David uses a word here that can mean taste but it is better defined as perceive, to absorb all of the evidence. When we use all of the senses we are designed with, the conclusion is our Creator is very real and very good.

Even though your children and husbands may know the whole Bible by heart and have the words of prophets at their fingertips, of what use would that be without God’s Love and Grace? (Prayer: Your Highness, thank You that we can tackle life in the conviction that we are in Your loving care. Our desire is to abide in You because that is where we find our strength, amen.)
