This was a post I read today that really caught my attention and made me think about the way that I read and interpret. Am I awed and amazed at YHWH and why He does things? Or am I stuck in the “how?” Click here to read the post. Also, read the first post by…

13 Reasons to Praise Him!
This was posted as a comment on Skip Moen’s blog, but I wanted to repost it here because it clarifies a lot of questions I had/have. Granted, it’s one person’s view and since I don’t know much about the Jewish beliefs (other than what’s in the Bible), I don’t know if it’s perfectly, precisely, 100%…
Mommy-hood
I know it’s probably irritating to have so many links to the same site, but I learn so many things. Today it hit home to the heart of my mommy-ness (Read the original post by Skip Moen here). One of the biggest struggles that I find myself in is fearing for my children’s safety. I…

Although, they often pertain to different classes of people, so it may not have been that many to remember. Most though do focus on unintentional sins. Only one is for an unintentional sin…
The Best of the Best
Numbers 18:29 Be sure to set aside the best portions of the gifts given to you as your gifts to the Lord. The context of this verse is that it is a change in the earlier law as a result of Korah’s rebellion. Now the people of Israel cannot approach the Tabernacle or they will…
Life Blood
Leviticus 17:11 “I have given you the blood so you can make atonement for your sins. It is the blood, representing life, that brings you atonement.” It’s the day before Easter. In this chapter God talks about the sacred nature of blood. It represents life. But it also reminds me of the sacrifice Jesus made…
