Text of the page (random words):
f the alphabet and they look like two crowns side by side purple was a royal and priestly color as well the color was acquired by crushing the shells of a certain shellfish from the mediterranean sea references to the white and the purple are scattered throughout exodus chapters from chapter 25 28 these colors were used for both the curtains that surrounded the holy of holies and the priests garments worn for duty in the tabernacle in light of the previous verse it is not hard to believe that she would wear the garments of a priest it most surely is spiritual clothiing as much as physical clothing and further evidence of the strong role she plays in her home as an example and guide at november 07 2016 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels shabat thoughts in my home this week whew in my home this week i don t know just what this coming week will hold i only expected half of this past week lol sam and bess stayed the night one night in the middle of the week on their way to the northern part of the state that was unexpected i babysat a sick josh while they tried to do an errand in the city that night and the next morning their first stop was urgent care with the boy he did not feel well poor baby friday i was trying to order my thoughts towards the arrival of my older son and grandchildren only to get a text message moments into my planning session that he was going to arrive five hours early oh dear that restful easy pace i d been thinking would be mine had to go into overdrive and several ideas of things i d meant to do were tossed away completely it was a rollicking visit thankfully the weather was slightly cooler the kids happily roamed and ran and roared about outdoors and then came indoors for quieter relatively play they cleaned their plates at every meal eating every bit as much as any adult and pretty much went top speed from morning until gramma slyly sent them all to bed a half hour early hey they can t read clocks yet and were asleep by 9pm it was wonderful every bit of it but 9pm was almost blissful and that s no lie typical of november we re seeing a bit more color on the trees now last week it felt rather odd to have the ac running most of the afternoon and into the early evening hours and to watch leaves drift from the trees at the same time there was definitely something wrong with that picture cooler weather blew back in over the weekend but truly it s not cool in my opinion it s about right but it s not cool cool weather to me necessitates a sweater or light jacket and allows me to be quite content to keep them on however the weather man insists upon calling it cooler and even cold sheesh and he s supposed to be from nebraska or something and so i shall refer to it as cool as well just to differentiate between pleasant and the stinking hot we ve had for what feels like endless months now there are now chipmunks out back if maddie has left any of them alive i think chipmunks are cute far more so than squirrels who tend to be a bit too destructive in their ways however acrobatic and funny they might be i was so pleased to see my first chipmunk on the place but at least twice now i ve found maddie feasting i have a strong suspicion that in her mind they are just so many more baby rabbits which she seems to consider a great delicacy sigh it is her sole indiscretion she typically chases birds from tree to tree or plays tag with the bees she admires adult rabbits from a distance any other feasting she does is the result of thievery because misu is the huntress in this household and no doubt that is how maddie came to know there were chipmunks about the blue jays still are loving the bird bath under the pecan tree i ve been checking it for water levels every day and refilling when needed there s one rather persistent mocking bird who is brazen enough to chase away the jays and when no other birds are lurking a smaller bird shows up i haven t gotten a good look at him just yet so i don t know what type of bird he is i have a confession to make i ve never allowed myself to like blue jays granny disliked them so you see and told me they had the habit of pushing out other s birds eggs from a nest and leaving their own to be hatched and raised as does the cuckoo and a few others and too the blue jay s cry is persistently thief thief which i feel is so hypocritical given their way of foisting off their children on others but here in the winters the jays and the red birds are the lively bits of color in an otherwise brown and grey landscape and this autumn i ve come to appreciate how their blue and gray and white coloring complements the tobacco gold of the pecan leaves i don t know that i can quite forget their nature but i suppose they are just as god made them and so i will do my best to appreciate the finer things about them as long as they don t scream thief at me too often i plan my work week i didn t get to a thing on my list of work for last week so i ll just transfer it to this week s list now that i m officially slowing down for a little bit it s all copasetic no worries i expect things will get done during

time to post them now i have a long list after two weeks of reading newsfeed and such so i thought it best to go ahead and give you all a nice list for this weekend it s varied enough i think to interest you enjoy i love to shop for antiques even though i seldom purchase very many this list has the best antique stores in small towns state by state just one per state but for goodness sake make sure you go visit those near you in your own states i can t name the number of times i ve meant to pay a visit and found when i finally broke down and did it that the place had closed up just a month or two before it always pains me to think of what i missed seeing i was surprised at who owns some of my favorite brands big corporations have sure taken over a lot of companies great for those small businesses that hopefully made a profit for their product but sometimes if you ve noticed a change in a favored brand a takeover might be why for those of you who enjoy the royal family i thought this short video and article about the queen of england was fun john mentioned the movie the station agent to me one morning on our way to do errands we stumbled upon later that week and stayed up until midnight watching it that s a long way past our bedtime it s a good film and i thought i d suggest you to those of you who have netflix or get the audience channel on cable i was not at all surprised to find st augustine on this list of the best small towns in america at november 04 2016 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest the proverbial woman vs 21 proverbs 31 21 she is not afraid of snow for her household for all her household are clothed in scarlet lamed is the twelvth letter of the hebrew alphabet in pictograph it is a shepherd s hook or goad it is considered the heart of the alphabet the original meaning of lamed is to prick sting incite goad as a shepherd might goad cattle into movement or action the hebrew name of the letter itself means to teach or to learn and refers to the torah labash is our word in this verse it means to clothe but the primitive root word means to wrap around on the surface of things this woman uses common sense and knows that there are seasons she has prepared her family for the season of snow we don t have snow often in georgia but i would think in an area where there was deep snow that red would most surely stand out it is unlikely that anyone wearing red would be lost in snow interestingly when the hebrew meanings of the words are studied in depth we learn that the scarlet dye was obtained by grinding the dried body of an insect it is only the female which produces this color i thought this spoke volumes about how our proverbial woman has sacrificed herself in a sense for her family as well we cannot forget that it was by blood that the israelites were saved during that horrible and wonderful night in egypt when the israelites were finally able to walk out of the slavery of generations and that was a foreshadowing of the blood of the lamb of god slain for our sins in years to come continue at november 03 2016 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook

weeks ahead suddenly seem to press in upon us it all feels like a downhill rush after october doesn t it i have not highlighted post this time around but i did go through and reply to most questions and commented on a few comments too i m between guests at the moment and have much to do to get ready for the next group but wanted to get out a post aside from the proverbial woman posts all other replies are in order of posting from the first ones this month to the last the proverbial woman posts will continue until i finish the series up i hope to do that in the next week but we ll see how long it takes to research some of these verses and words lol i knew it was delving deeper but i hadn t realized just how much i d be stretched in writing these posts from a spiritual perspective rather than the practical georgene did ask about what resources i used for these posts and i ll share them with you all i used hebrew4christians com to get an understanding of the hebrew letters i used bereansonline the eshet chayil and this site to get a better understanding of the hebrew meanings i used blueletterbible org lexicon and strong s commentaries to get a better understanding of hebrew meanings of root words i have used the random other website but i didn t bookmark those and can t tell you which they were debbie in ks john and i attended messianic synagogues for about 4 years total with a year s break between year 3 and 4 we wanted to learn more about the jewish roots of the christian faith which frankly was glossed over or forgotten very often by pastors the bible was all written from a hebrew jewish standpoint even though the new testament was largely recorded originally in the greek language those men who became the first christians were many of them of the jewish faith even the gentiles of the region in that era knew life more from a jewish standpoint than any other it was this fact that led us to go more deeply into study of torah and old testament we ve discovered some wonderful teachers along the way perry stone jonathon bernis larry huch and john hagee are some of the most outstanding i find that today ten years after we d begun our journey that more and more we hear from the pulpit reminders that our faith has it hebraic roots another time perhaps i will write a more indepth post about our experiences we feel strongly that we should keep a sabbath day not necessarily saturday but we do and we do a sabbath evening prayer and candle lighting service complete with kiddush communion each friday evening the messianic years were pivotal years for us and richly rewarding the essence of the tenets of the denomination is that christ was is the messiah many messianics are jewish and grew up in the jewish faith but had a spiritual revelation of christ in their lives hence many of the jewish traditions were brought forward with an awareness that all torah and talmud foretell the coming of the messiah who did in fact come to earth it is a lovely blending of new testament with old in messianic synagogues continue at november 03 2016 2 comments email this blogthis share to x s...
