helping you make Torah the heart of your home
Wow! This must be a record for me. Every stitch of work I can dream up is done, the bills are payed, the food is put away, the kids are bathed, and everything is ready for our Yom Teruah celebration tomorrow. We’re just watching “Annie” while we wait for the
I just wanted to show a couple of pics today. In the background you can see the roof on the sukkah. In front you can see my new tichel from Sowers of Hope. Thank you very much! Elisha wanted to say hi too. Happy day, everyone!
In the last four years, Doug has become completely obsessed with Feast of Tabernacles. He tries to improve and design a better sukkah every year. It’s a challenge here in northeast Michigan. We’ve had rain, flooded tents, mud, “smoke” issues, freezing temperatures, flat air mattresses, etc. And we’ve never had
We all say it, but is it really true?Can we teach our children everything with our Bible and perhaps a few reference works? I thought I’d do a little experiment with next week’s torah portion and find out. Here’s what I came up with. I am assuming a methodical math
I have really been grappling with the connection between sin and sickness. Last week’s torah portion included Deuteronomy 28, 68 verses of blessings and cursings. If you obey you will be blessed. If you disobey, you will have miscarriages, plagues, terrible itch, boils, etc. It really makes sense when you
I thought it would be helpful to join Mama’s Mission of the Month. I have a very simple goal to accomplish in September. Laundry. I want to get a load in every day except Shabbat, and actually have it put away the same day. So there you have it. A
Okay, it’s embarrassing. I’m supposed to be the teacher. But today my six year old was. We were supposed to go to the sawmill and pick up some slab wood. My husband is working on the roof of our sukkah. I failed to call ahead as I was supposed to,
My mind has been going a bit deep lately. I’ve been completely engulfed in trying to learn who YHVH is and how to trust Him for everything. He is slowly showing Himself to me and He is ever faithful. But I still live on this planet, and I thought I’d
My heart is very full tonight. I had hoped this would be my last post on healing, but it is not to be. YHVH told me to make an appointment with my OB when I began praying for healing. I went to see her today, and fully expected her to
Yahshua healed many people, and usually said something to the effect of, “Your faith has made you whole.” So what is faith? Is it simply believing? Is it an emotion? If I have a weak moment of doubt, is it all over? I hope not, because in the last 6
My next question while seeking healing was: Why did I have two c-sections? Why did I need healing in the first place? Scriptures are clear on the reason for sickness and disease. But I don’t think it’s an answer we want to spend too much time on. Of course, we
YHVH, our heavenly Father, We need you this week. We want to please you in all we do. We can’t do anything without you, and we can do all things with you. We ask you to remember your covenant with us. You promise us blessing, success, and an abundant life.
This is about my prayer for healing. Let me give you a little background first. My first baby was born by c-section. My next three were vbacs. Then I had another c-section. I want to have as many children as YHVH blesses me with. My birth history is beginning to
I want to take a few minutes and praise YHVH for my husband. DISCLAIMER: He’s still a little rough around the edges, but I love him anyway!I’m very thankful for how he has stepped up to the plate in recent months. We got a satellite to watch God’s Learning Channel
Okay, when we have a little extra money, here is my list of nice to haves: a siddura tichel from Sowers of Hopefabric to make a huppah (we want to renew our vows this fall during Sukkot)Bedtime Shema (a lovely picture book with bedtime prayers for children)a real menorahLand of
So my children are all talking about getting to go in and help me pay for chicken feed at the feed store. My three year old pipes up with, “I not go chickens. Chickens kill me.” Everyone laughed at her cuteness, including her. But the real truth is that she
