I never really thought that blessing the name of Yahweh would really impact my life. That is, until Yah tugged on my attention to it. You see, (back in May 2023), I was trying to repair a very neglected garden fence. It stood for 17 years and over time the Read more
When life is falling apart around me, it’s so easy to complain and feel sorry for myself. It’s easier to gripe and resent than to praise Yahweh and look for the blessings. Who wants to do that??? And why? Well, there is a method, really a cycle. We know it Read more
“Blessed are the poor is spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” (Matt. 5:3) Poor in spirit. I used to think that meant poor in spirit so poor in the physical realm. The blind. The deaf. The lame. Not so. Poor. Pauper. Public beggar. So poor that they can Read more

I often think what the Proverbs 31 Woman would be in modern times. Her candle – though maybe no longer a candle – doesn’t go out. Questions… Read more
When life swamps me and I feel like I’m barely above water, I wonder how the Virtuous Woman of Proverbs 31 did it. I really do. Looking back, I’ve planned and worked to stay ahead and still I find it almost too challenging to stay afloat after Sukkot. What am Read more
I don’t know how it goes with you, but with me, when life rains upon me, it pours. When life gets busy, I feel so busy that it’s hard to slow down. Sometimes I’m up and running and wondering when I’ll have time to do this or that. It can Read more
I never really gave it miuch thought. Actually, I would most likely conclude that therapy is a modern concept, not a Scriptural one. while there is no “direct” instructions about therapy in the New Testament/Covenant, I was rather surprised to find the Greek word utilized in a passage, Matthew 17:14-21, Read more
