Life is messy, bro . . . Zane finished the favorite refrain with Sam. . . . Do the best you can, learn from your mistakes, and then move on.
Genesis 11:4 for Zane: And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole ea...
Promises of YHWH. Hebrews 13:6 came to his mind, that famous quote from Psalm 118: YHWH is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?

That plan, it appeared, was quickly coming to its conclusion. Forty-one Jubilee cycles after Adam, the covenant had been renewed through the promise given to Abraham and his seed. Then, forty-one Jubi...

Don’t let the sorrow and pain rob you of the purpose your Creator has for your life. Right now your world may be bathed in shadows and gray, but I promise you that someday the clouds will once again b...
Yes, and that is the beauty of counting the Jubilee cycle this way. The Sabbath and Jubilee cycles dance together, so to speak, each going their own way, then coming back together again when the time...
YHWH is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name...
