As I reflect on 2022, I am forever grateful to GOD for countless restorations physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually! One of the main highlights was hosting our first Seder meal at the Joy Barn! Miller Meats in Findlay, Ohio prepared the lamb by marinating for three days and it was very tender and delicious! So thankful to GOD in getting to honor Pesach (Passover) along with the families and the children getting to experience it too! Juanita and I got to attend Simchat Torah Beit Midrash's Seder meal and to attend a Leadership Conference as well! We also got to worship, to share a meal and to honor God during Shabbat, a Holy time to Rest. Prayers for spouses and children are spoken corporately and openly along with questions and open discussions happen at the JOY Barn in McComb, Ohio! If you may be interested or someone you know would like the 2023 schedule, please contact me @419-957-3586 or cathyschock17@gmail.com.
We got to go on vacation in Grand Traverse, Michigan with all of our children and ALL seven grandchildren! We got to celebrate Larry's (my hubby) birthday in July and was such a fun week! We got to pick 10 lbs. of blueberries and 8 lbs. of cherries! So yummy!
BeLoved Under His Wings was invited to worship corporately with other Ohio counties as they traveled and joined us in music, dance and prayers for our state! It was truly a beautiful blessing of God's AMAZING LOVE, the Heart of it all! "With GOD All Things Are Possible" is Ohio's motto!
Rabbi asked us to read the Zion Chronicles by Bodie Thoene and her husband, so we could better understand Chanukah! It truly is an eye opener and quite AMAZING Israel has a miracle of Jews still alive!
Another highlight was getting Cataract surgery in both eyes : ) No driving or swimming for 8 weeks and that part was hard! My love for weekly water exercise eliminates stress by blowing and popping bubbles, besides adding another mile to 1,893 miles! It works out a lot of kinks and stretches muscles in a good way! BUT also, we got to meet with my brother in Dayton, Ohio for some laughs and delicious food! My brother always makes me laugh!
The LORD also inspired me to paint "Generation To Generation" in 2022!
So God's Kingdom community continues to unfold as people and families awaken in the Spirit to their heritage of Hebrew roots after centuries of nations and of generations being exiled. It is difficult to imagine the original size of God's Promised land on earth to Abraham and his seed!
Gen 17:1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, Yahweh appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me, and be blameless.
Gen 17:2 I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
Gen 17:3 Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,
Gen 17:4 “As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.
Gen 17:5 Your name will no more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
Gen 17:6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you.
Gen 17:7 I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your offspring after you.
Gen 17:8 I will give to you, and to your offspring after you, the land where you are traveling, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. I will be their God.”
Gen 17:9 God said to Abraham, “As for you, you will keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.
Gen 17:10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your offspring after you.
Several weeks ago I asked someone, "what if heaven wasn't out there somewhere in outer space?" Could it be possible for heaven to be a destiny for our new bodies "in a twinkling of an eye" to live on earth?
1Co 15:51 Behold, I tell you a mystery.
We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed,
1Co 15:52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.
Because she has suffered for years with pain and a terrible disease, she simply could not believe such a thing may be a possibility. Living with a negative and painful life on earth is something many who suffer, it is appealing to have a desire to leave ASAP! Sometimes we simply don't know what to do with pain and NONE of us like it!
But GOD has blessed us with a free will "to choose life" according to Deuteronomy 28:1-14. To curl up and die seems much more agreeable to escape and to go on to the other side, even if prematurely.
We need to be awakened and to understand what we do in our actions as well as what we speak on earth, prepares us for the next world to come, the Olam Haba, (the world to come), as it is in heaven. ALL I KNOW, is The BEST is YET To COME for us, as Abraham's seed continues to serve the Messiah/Jesus Christ! In 2023, Keep up the Great Work as an increase continues to unfold in everyway!
Tomorrow we will watch "Fiddler On The Roof." This story of Israel's lifestyle (strong families, even if poor), reminds us how far our culture has eroded. In some cases, maybe how far we may have drifted away from God's original intention on earth as it is in heaven. Enjoy the song below as you listen to the lyrics and melody! Until my next time...continue moving forward in God's LOVE with yourself and with others!
1 Corinthians 13...Love is patient, Love is kind, ...
Lyrics: Gam Zu L'Tova
Lev Tahor
EliSchwebel
Sometimes your world comes crashing down You ask, “why me, why now, why now” Your mind is fighting for sanity All you gotta do is sing… La la la la Gam Zu L’Tova And no, it won’t, always be easy, This kind of love is worth believing. It’s not always peaceful lives we are living, But we gotta learn to sing… La la la Gam Zu L’Tova
When I wake When I wake When I wake up oh oh Gam Zu L’Tova
When I feel like I’m giving up

When I wake when I wake when I wake up

When I wake when I wake when I wake up

When I wake when I wake when I wake up
