Psalm 37:3 Hebrew word study
Trust in YHVH and do good, so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Psalm 37:3 Batach – Trust – The concept is one of clinging to security, having confidence in, relying on. Tov – Good – This word is so much more than good. The idea is of a […]
A little praise
I would like to share something exciting that happened to me. It may be a small thing to others, but it was a big thing to me. I was talking on the phone to Doug at work, when it felt like I got something in my eye. I had to hang up the phone while […]
Our journey to simple living
I have always been drawn to the simple life. My mom made our own clothes and toys, and my dad grew a big garden and hunted venison to help with food. Now, with a home of my own and 5+ kids to care for, my heart is seeking the simpler ways again. Part is from […]
an inspiring birth
I just stumbled upon this birth account and found it very inspiring. It was written by a Jewish woman, after the birth of her daughter. Her faith and confidence, despite her fears, was amazing. I hope you enjoy it. I also want to remember where it is, lol, so I can read it again. Overcoming […]
Prep day followup
I didn’t quite make it before the 3:00 pm deadline, but here I am anyway. Elisha and I got a little distracted. I was trying to clean the living room floor, and decided to do it with a wet wash cloth. Then I could practice crawling around, which will be good for baby positioning later […]
My prep day check in
I thought I’d check in real quick and give you a picture of prep day at our house. The key for me has been maintenance throughout the week. I can’t be hohum about housework for days 1-5 and then magically become Martha Stewart on prep day. Believe me, I’ve tried. A good working schedule has […]
Healing, Part 6
I feel like Job in chapter 42. I am humbled before an Almighty Elohim who controls the weather and creates mighty beasts that no one can tame. He is not to be questioned and not to be told what He will do. I am not worthy of His attention or His favor. Many others suffer […]
Really good soup
Sunday we butchered a sheep, and cooked down as many bones as we could fit in our pots. Today I was feeling much better after my little visit from a friendly little flu bug. (Okay, he was really mean, and beat me up and left me for dead.) So I made some soup from the […]
Quick update and a recipe
Hello again! Update for torah school homeschoolers: Chayei Sarah is ready to go. Please accept my sincerest apology for taking so long on this one. I just learned that some families study the week prior to the reading of the torah portion. I will try to avoid this delay in the future. I would like […]
Healing, Part 6
Update: 75% of my scar is barely visible, the remainder is not far behind. Ever since my first c-section, I have had severe bleeding in early pregnancy lasting at least a month and putting me on bedrest. This time around, praise YHVH, it has been negligible at most. Praise YHVH! This journey has been humbling and […]
