    Prayer:

  • Ian born 3.12.08  he's up to 4.9 pounds now.  there were 2 holes in his heart and one has closed and they are optimistic the other will as well.  He does have an annurism on his aorta that the docs are saying requires surgery but now they want him to get to 10 pounds.  He has had to have a blood transfusion as well.  So keep lifting this baby boy up.  His parents know it's only because of the L-RD he's being sustained.  Thank you YHVH for taking care of this little one.

    DH to turn back to Yeshua.  For Yeshua to reveal to him the truth of Hebrew Roots so we can be one and have a blessed marriage. 

    My great aunt ((70yrs young)) had a heart piece put it 4/28 or 4/29 and she got ill shortly after and they are concerned she may reject the heart piece .  Her grown children are too busy to look after her and make sure she gets to/from the hospital and my mom is doing a lot of driving these days between her aunt and

    My Nanna ((aka my mom's mom))  who recently broke her other hip and the docs are saying she has a spot on her lung ((NO she was not a smoker, her late husband was and did die from lung cancer)).  My Nanna is 74.

    my Grandma's ((Nanna)) friend is getting chemo for lung cancer ((and no she never smoked so stop stereo-typing/assuming/judging)) and she's in her 80's, she's prepared to meet YHVH and we know either way HE can heal her.  Just comfort and peace and strength to endure whatever HE calls her to.

    My mom is taking all these ladies to their various doctor appointments and treatments.  One lives in our metro and the others live b/w 2-4 hours from here.  My mom needs strength as she is so kind to be doing all of this.  My mom says docs have a cynical side and if a patient is over 65 they view them as expendable so they are not as quick to help them.  She may be right and/or doctors are just overworked.  Either way all these ladies not getting the proper respect and care they need is making my mom angry.  ((rightly so I would think))

    and if it's not too much to ask...I've had to endure hearing about several pregnancy announcements and birth announcements recently.  I feel like I am dying inside.  The pain is enormous.  I really just want more children and HIS Word says they are the best type of physical blessing.  I am not asking for riches or material things.  I know all HE has to do is think/speak my body into being a "baby making machine" and it would be done.  Praying for a miracle.

    Praise:

    Back when I watched my cousins 4th child- Roger - I didn't think I was all that nice to him.  But he's seen my and DS's picture at Nanna's and he says "that boy would not share his toys and his mommy told him that is not nice.  I like his mommy she was very nice to me" 

    that I am able to do some good in my very humble part time job.  The gal whose work gets checked against mine has been able to balance and match exact totals every day and she no longers gets in trouble for unbalanced checks nor gets frustrated for not being able to find the figure that is not lining up.

    thankful to have a DH and a DS.  my guys!!

    my Grandma's ((Nanna)) friend is getting chemo for lung cancer ((and no she never smoked so stop stereo-typing/assuming/judging)) and she's in her 80's, she's prepared to meet YHVH and we know either way HE can heal her.  Just comfort and peace and strength to endure whatever HE calls her to.

    My mom is taking all these ladies to their various doctor appointments and treatments.  One lives in our metro and the others live b/w 2-4 hours from here.  My mom needs strength as she is so kind to be doing all of this.  My mom says docs have a cynical side and if a patient is over 65 they view them as expendable so they are not as quick to help them.  She may be right and/or doctors are just overworked.  Either way all these ladies not getting the proper respect and care they need is making my mom angry.  ((rightly so I would think))

    and if it's not too much to ask...I've had to endure hearing about several pregnancy announcements and birth announcements recently.  I feel like I am dying inside.  The pain is enormous.  I really just want more children and HIS Word says they are the best type of physical blessing.  I am not asking for riches or material things.  I know all HE has to do is think/speak my body into being a "baby making machine" and it would be done.  Praying for a miracle.

    Praise:

    Back when I watched my cousins 4th child- Roger - I didn't think I was all that nice to him.  But he's seen my and DS's picture at Nanna's and he says "that boy would not share his toys and his mommy told him that is not nice.  I like his mommy she was very nice to me" 

    that I am able to do some good in my very humble part time job.  The gal whose work gets checked against mine has been able to balance and match exact totals every day and she no longers gets in trouble for unbalanced checks nor gets frustrated for not being able to find the figure that is not lining up.

    thankful to have a DH and a DS.  my guys!

    Let's shake things up this week in honor of Unleavened Bread (Matzah)

    Bible --  Can't take this away
    Reading in Judges
    During the week read to DS portions from this book

    4/26 read Leviticus 19:1-20:27; ((wouldn't it be cool if every congregation read the same passage of scripture that week in meeting?!!!))
    Amos 9:7-15; Ezekiel 20:2-20;
    1 Cor. 6:9-20; 1 Pet 1:13-16

    Count the Omer -- You are Blessed to participate, it's still day 1 if you want to get on board

    Others -

    *2 days help out at my sisters job by opening and tallying check payments received
    *4/25 - Shabbat Service
    *4/26 - Torah Study and HavDalah
    *4/20 ((yesterday)) We had a lively discussion from just reading James 3:2-12 on how we should talk a ton less. Praise be to YHVH who is weekly bringing those who hunger and thirst for the whole WORD, not just what the church says is important....did you know the first century and then some Believers knew that accepting the Messiah meant being grafted in to the Hebrew faith?  They didn't want to be called gentiles.  Paul was always trying to show the physical and non-physical Jews that they were all Jews spiritually.  He many times said the law is not void and I know those of you out there who say you are saved live by the 10 commandments and of course the summary of Messiah's own words to love G-D and then our neighbor....both just ways of summing up all of Torah which really just expounds on on the TEN.  It wasn't until those in authority started saying any caught Judaizing will be put to death that we stopped observing the true Sabbath and stopped keeping the Feasts and started saying things like the New Living Translation says in Ephesians 2:15 that the Jewish law/system has been done away with...that's misleading.  The only thing done away with was the animal sacrifice needed to cover sins.  Yeshua doesn't just cover them, HE forgives them.  What a truly AWESOME YHVH we serve!!!  I pray everyone's ears and eyes would be opened to desire to know and seek out the whole TRUTH and not just blindly follow church leaders.

    Prayer -

    Ian born 3/12/08  up to 2.8 pounds on 4/16 and being life flighted to a hospital here today to await heart surgery...praying he continues to grow and be healthy and doesn't need surgery!

    thanking Yeshua that DH was able to attend the 2nd Pesach Seder last night.  DS prayed before we went that daddy would like it and want to come with us all the time and not have to work on the nights we go up there.  Children's prayers are so sweet!

    My Nanna's 80 something year old friend Wilda who is having a biopsy to check on some cancer to determine how they'll treat it - Yeshua can heal her!

    A man in my ss class who is also having a cancer check-in this week ... it keeps getting postponed so YHVH could have healed him by now and we totally believe HE is able!

     

    As for food -- whatever we have will be leaven free

    May YHVH bless thee, and keep thee:
    May YHVH make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
    May YHVH lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee Shalom.

    Ian born 3.12.08  he's up to 2 pounds now.  there were 2 holes in his heart and one has closed and they are optimistic the other will as well.  He does have an annurism on his aorta that the docs are saying requires surgery but now they want him to get to 3 pounds.  He has had to have a blood transfusion as well.  So keep lifting this baby boy up.  His parents know it's only because of the L-RD he's being sustained.  Thank you YHVH for taking care of this little one.

    DH had his tonsils removed 4/4 and is recovering.  Swollen throat and difficulty swallowing/talking. 

  • DH to turn back to Yeshua.  For Yeshua to reveal to him the truth of Hebrew Roots so we can be one and have a blessed marriage. 

  • 2.) "Must Do":

    • Exercise 5 days a week
    • Purge the leaven  http://www.jewfaq.org/holidaya.htm#Motzaei

    • 4/20 - 3:30pm  2nd Seder with HavDalah group -- PLEASE pray my DH's on call work schedule comes together so he can attend this without having to take a day off work to do so PLEASE
    • 04/20 11am- Attend Intro to Jewish Roots class this weekend.   We had a lively discussion from just reading James 3:2-12 on 4/13  Praise be to YHVH who is weekly bringing those who hunger and thirst for the whole WORD, not just what the church says is important....did you know the first century and then some Believers knew that accepting the Messiah meant being grafted in to the Hebrew faith?  They didn't want to be called gentiles.  Paul was always trying to show the physical and non-physical Jews that they were all Jews spiritually.  He many times said the law is not void and I know those of you out there who say you are saved live by the 10 commandments and of course the summary of Messiah's own words to love G-D and then our neighbor....both just ways of summing up all of Torah which really just expounds on on the TEN.  It wasn't until those in authority started saying any caught Judaizing will be put to death that we stopped observing the true Sabbath and stopped keeping the Feasts and started saying things like the New Living Translation says in Ephesians 2:15 that the Jewish law/system has been done away with...that's misleading.  The only thing done away with was the animal sacrifice needed to cover sins.  Yeshua doesn't just cover them, HE forgives them.  What a truly AWESOME YHVH we serve!!!  I pray everyone's ears and eyes would be opened to desire to know and seek out the whole TRUTH and not just blindly follow church leaders.

    DH is having his tonsils out on 4/4 shortly after 6:45am

    Me- my DH tells me over and over that I am of little value to him.  He views a homemaker/stay-at-home mom as a free loader and that I am too close to Jesus and taking all the Bible in applying its Truth to our here and now times is not possible because the Bible was written for back then and he views the Bible as inaccurate because it's been handed down/recopied thru the centuries and all the translations in to other languages means we can't be sure we even know what it's saying.  I did ask him if he thought G-D was able to preserve HIS Word and he says he can see G-D doing that but he still doesn't view the Bible as written as relevant for today.  These are my DH's words to me over the past week.  I know it's taboo to speak out about this but it's really hurting me.  I know it's because we are not on equal footing when it comes to what a relationship with Jesus means.  I know it's trust and obey and he just likes the feel good and social aspects but doesn't want to take the Bible as our manual for how we should live.
