More

I think a very brief Word is all I have for us today.

Psalm 19:8  (7) The Torah of Adonai is perfect,
restoring the inner person. [source]

When we as Gentiles see the Word Torah we have been taught to think law. That is not wrong but a proper understanding of Torah is more than just Law.  Torah in our English language would be more closely related to our word Teaching. The Torah of the LORD is law, instructions, commands, and counsel, all as our schoolmaster to teach us we need a Savior and to teach us how to live while we are here on this planet.  The Torah, the Teaching, the Whole Counsel of GOD applied to our minds and hearts by the HOLY SPIRIT restores our souls.

So when our souls are parched; when we are ill-tempered and out of sorts; when our countenance is downcast and moody, we are in need of the Torah of the LORD. His Word WILL restore and make glad our souls. We just have to feed on His Torah and allow Him to strengthen and heal us.  It is my hope we will.

Thank You, Father. I pray, HOLY SPIRIT, You will apply Your Word to our souls and we will be healed in the Mighty Name of ADONAI.

Cease Entertaining

May I quickly share a few verses of Scripture? I picked up my Bible and it fell to Romans 12 and my eyes met with verse 20 and I backed up to 19 for context. Please read with me.

19 Never seek revenge, my friends; instead, leave that to God’s anger; for in the Tanakh it is written,

Adonai says, ‘Vengeance is my responsibility; I will repay.’”

20 On the contrary,

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
For by doing this, you will heap
fiery coals [of shame] on his head.”

21 Do not be conquered by evil, but conquer evil with good.  [source]

Vengeance is my responsibility; I will repay, He said. And we know our GOD cannot lie; not will not but CANNOT. He would cease to be GOD if He ever lied and, Friends, that ain’t :) gonna happen. Aren’t you glad? So let us leave vengeance and pay back to Him; but as we leave it to Him let us NOT sit and wait for pay back to come so we can rejoice.  No. No. No. That is not His command to us.  Rather, let us move forward as He has commanded and do good to those who do evil to us. And if today all the good you can do is pray for them and not do the evil to them that you would like, by all means do that. Pray for them and cease entertaining that payback. 

This is not an easy passage, ABBA, but I am grateful to read it; grateful for Your promise and grateful for Your instructions as to what You expect my conduct to be. Thank You. And thank You for the grace and strength to obey, all that is left to add is my willingness and I pray even for help to be willing. Thank You, ADONAI.  And, ABBA, it is rare that JT would be sick but he is today and I am asking You to heal him today.  And there are others that are always on my mind; Jamie for one. Thank You that You are fully worthy of our trust and You are able and You do all things well; so we trust You. And thank You for reminders. So I pray for Israel. Thank You for that blessed Nation and I ask for their protection and the subduing of all their enemies; all praise and petitions here offered in the Name of YESHUA, JESUS the CHRIST.

An Announcement

There’s a new blog in web-land and it’s mine.

The new work is entitled Who’s With Me?

It is not my intention to abandon The White Stone. This new attempt, I believe, is an avenue at the direction of ABBA to give me a place to voice my pleas and cries for America; for Her restoration and survival. A place for me to pass along news, opinions and yes, matters for urgent and fervent prayer. I have strong, passionate concerns for America’s salvation, both eternal and temporal and it seems to me The White Stone is not necessarily the forum to give me voice. I am hoping that Who’s With Me? will be a productive outlet.

So I invite you to click HERE and visit my new digs. There you will find multiple ways to connect with me:

1. You will have the opportunity make comments at the end of any post.

2. You will have the opportunity to simply leave a check indicating that you Agree; Disagree or Don’t Care as to the post subject.

3. You will have the opportunity to automatically receive all new posts via email as you do here with The White Stone. And a new feature:

4. A message board that allows you to send a comment directly to my email that will not become a part of the post – it’s a private means of communication.  I wish Word Press offered such a widget here at The White Stone. Perhaps it does and I just don’t know it yet.

So please take a few minutes as your earliest convenience, click HERE and see what Who’s With Me? is all about. And send me your opinions. I really want to hear from you. 

I am excited and looking forward to this new journey,
