Trust

Published on 10/13,2007

The feast was absolutely awesome! We had a blast! Laughing The fellowship was probably the best--finally putting faces to many of those names on the chat room, and meeting some wonderful new people was so awesome! The activities were fun as well, all of them helping us to learn what it's like to work together and how to really have a great team. All in all, the feast was a blast!!

The only sad part was when the feast was over, and everyone was packing up and heading home! It went by too fast! I can't wait till next feast--Passover, and Feast of Unleavened Bread! Yahweh's feasts are no match for the world's. They don't last as long, aren't as fun or fulfilling and encouraging as Yahweh's are! It's so sad that so many people can't see why Yahweh made the feasts--not only to worship Him, but for our pleasure as well! They aren't a burden! They aren't done away with!

Well, this past week I've really been thinking about how we should trust in Yahweh. It's tough, especially if you've been let down in your life when you have trusted others. That just complicates matters. With that pain from the past, you think, "Well, what if Yahweh lets me down?" or "What if this doesn't turn out like I wanted, and I'm miserable for the rest of my life?". 

I've always struggled with that. I'll have to say that just two nights ago I finally gave up and surrendered. I was like, "Yahweh made me, He knows everything about me, and He knows just who is the right man for me," (I've really struggled with the fact of who my future husband will be. I mean, that's a life-long commitment that can't ever be broken!) So I prayed. But, it took more than prayer. I didn't feel any different. I was like, "Okay, how in the world do I give this to Him?" But, then I thought, word pictures. So, I prayed for Yahweh to show me a picture of Him taking this from me. I told him I was giving it to Him--I was holding it out. 

In my mind, I saw a picture of myself walking up a hill with a huge rock on my back--the rock was bigger than me! Then, I watched His hands come into the picture, and pick up the rock off my back, and I ran after Him as He began to walk away with it. There was joy written all over my face. 

And I knew right then he had taken it. What a burden off my back! The toil and decisions of the future were up to Him! He knew me better than I knew me, so He knew who was the right person for me, and everything that was with my future. 

Matthew 11:28, "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."

Yes, He will.

So I would encourage all my young brothers and sisters who struggle like I did to do the same--give it to Yahweh. It is hard--it took me several years. I don't claim to know everything, but I do know that Yahweh is there for you, and He's reaching out, ready to take your burden for you, so you can climb that mountain.

May Yahweh Bless you all. 

A fellow servant, Kara

    wow Kara, i think that is now the third time when you were thinking of the same things like me. Pretty amazing:) I completly agree - and I believe Yahweh has some understanding for us. SInce we don't yet fully know who he is and how he is like. But I know He is awesome and has plans for us all.. Yahweh bless you and just wait for the right time; He knows it better than you do (and than I do:).

    HalleluYah, Amadea. Yes, that is amazing! :) You are so right--we don't know fully who He is, or how He is like, and I agree; He is awesome and has plans for us all.
    Thank you :)Yahweh Bless you!

    Shabbat Shalom KaraYah,
    Just finished getting the babies down for a nap, again. Not very suscessful at this , as, the moment one of them actually goes to sleep, the other one is compelled to make certain to wake the sleeping one. Occaisionally, I am convinced, my innocent little two year olds' have this strategy planned in advance, somehow convince sleeping will cause something to be missed. Todays outing was to see how much fun could be had, playing in a fresh raked pile of leaves. :D. They are very so very ambitious. Between 2 two year old little ones, they wear me out fast. I count every one of their smiles as a treasure.
    I thank YHWH for entrusting us with so many children. Such a blessing and such a responsibility.
    Levi, our 14 year old, gave me a moment of understanding last evening... I was making lunch for him and Jimmie for today and Levi was going through the newspaper adds. He came upon a spread for Halloween stuff. So he shared his views and opinions on the whole matter.......
    He began by informing me of how demonic the add he was viewing presented itself. Then, he went on to examine the word Halloween and his upset is in the name itself. How it is presented as holy. Hallow. as if it is something to be worshiped.
    He shared of a little Hispanic girl he and Jimmie (my husband), had seen in town. This child was walking about with a wooden knife covered in fake blood. "How this is teaching even the very young violence and to kill others". Levi then went into the Historical context of the culture and surrounding areas of the Incas and such of their Pagan Ba'al worshiping of sacrificing children, and how there are evidence these horrific practices still continue to this day.
    I sat back and listened to him, without additions of my precepts. I went in then and shared with Jimmie how Levi was developing on his own through YHWH in his precepts of understanding the root meanings of Idolitry.
    This is truly a treasure for a parent. First hand hearing their children profess their faith in YHWH unsolicited. From their own precept building blocks YHWH has blessed him with insight to see, and to speak out about shamelessly.

    Hab 3:18 Yet I exult in יהוה, I rejoice in the Elohim of my deliverance.
    Hab 3:19 יהוה the Master is my strength. And He makes my feet like those of deer, And makes me walk on my high places. To the chief singer with my stringed instruments.

    YHWH willing we will hear you singing this Sabbath. YHWH, Knows each of us so perfectly, clear down to the number of hairs on each of our heads. YHWH has a perfectly designed plan for you. In HIS infinite wisdom, YHWH knows exactly the right mate for each of us. It is never too early to pray on behalf of your mate. For their well being, thier salvation, and for their heart to be made soft to hear YHWHs wispers. Knowing that communication is both sharing and listening.
    Hang in there, you are certain to make a wonderful wife, when the time is right.
    Lovingly
    Remnant
    a servant vessel of YHWH

    Shalom Remnant,
    Wow...what a blessing! That's amazing how your son notes those things :) I'm sure it's a treasure. HalleluYah!
    I may sing this Sabbath...we'll see :) I'm glad you've got the speakers! That's a blessing!
    Thank you for your advice :) I appreciate your care--and yes, I do pray.
    Thank you again :) Yahweh Bless you.

    I've already known what was happened to you.
    Just take it easy.Don't be very serious about that.
    Don't sturggle with your emotions.Just let it go.
    Then you could understand yourself better.
    You may could understand any definations better then.
    I think you remember that You took my promise.
    I think you should think more carefully about other subjects like responsibility, love, manner, joy,pain,and romance before thinking about husband and family.
    You have to understand what life is in beforehead.
    I'm much old but don't think about who my future wife will be,because i'm old enough to know what "wife" will looks like;So anyone who are female will be like the same.
    Actually i think it's not a subject that worthy of fooling yourself around.But if you can't keep yourself down,just let it be.
    Another sentences i suppose to share with you is:There is no proof yet that any kind of love could be more amiable than love between the mortals;even for the love between "Husband" and "wife" which is the lower type of love!Just stop condemning the untrusty mortals!There must be serious link between position and trust.(Your friend is not angry,he still loves you than ever).
    From Your Loayl Friend - Sir.Arsi.

    I appreciate your words; thank you for taking the time out to share them with me :)
    Yes, I agree that I need to mature alot more before thinking about these things :) Yahweh is helping me to conquer that and think more on the present and qualities I need to develop than the time of marriage when I'll need those qualities.
    May Yahweh Bless you.
    In Messiah,
    Kara
