Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed. He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.

Give Thanks to God for His Creation: A Thanksgiving Reflection

Give Thanks to God for His Creation: "Approaching Thanksgiving with a Heart of Gratitude"

As Thanksgiving draws near, it's the perfect time to reflect on the many blessings that God has given us. One of those blessings that is so easy to take for granted is the beauty and wonder of God's creation. From the smallest microbe to the grandest mountain peak, God's handiwork is all around us. This devotional, entitled 'Give Thanks to God for His Creation', is based on Psalm 104:24–25 (ESV) and encourages us to pause and meditate on the incredible gift of God's creation.

Reflection on Psalm 104:24–25: "Marveling at the Wisdom in Creation"

Psalm 104:24–25 (ESV) says, "O Lord, how manifold are your works! In wisdom have you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. Here is the sea, great and wide, which teems with creatures innumerable, living things both small and great." We can see from these verses that God’s creation is both vast and intricate. It's also an expression of His wisdom.

The Intricacy of Creation: "Finding Purpose in Every Detail"

When we look at the intricacies of God's creation, it's hard not to be awed by how everything fits together. From the tiniest insect to the most majestic eagle, everything has a purpose. The flowers that grow in the fields aren't there just to look pretty. They are a vital part of the ecosystem, providing food and shelter for insects, birds and other animals.

The Majesty of Nature: "Witnessing God's Power and Faithfulness"

All of creation points to the majesty and greatness of God. The sun that rises each morning and sets each night is a testament to His faithfulness. The mountains that stand tall and strong remind us of His power. The ocean that stretches out as far as the eye can see is a sign of His vastness. When we take time to appreciate the beauty of God's creation, it has a way of shrinking our problems and reminding us that God is in control. There is a beautiful symmetry to the way that God has created the earth. We can see it in the way that stars are born and then die, in the way that the seasons change, and in the way that plants grow and produce fruit. All of these things are evidence of God's order and design.

Joy and Wonder in Creation: "Experiencing God's Love Through Nature"

But the beauty of God's creation is more than just a reminder of His greatness. It's also a source of joy and wonder for us. When we take the time to savor a beautiful sunrise or marvel at a snow-covered landscape, we are experiencing the joy that God intended us to have when He created this world. We are reminded of the love that He poured into every aspect of His creation.

Conclusion: "Thanksgiving and Perspective: Celebrating God's Gifts and Care"

As Thanksgiving approaches, let's take time to give thanks for the many blessings that God has given us, including the gift of His creation. When we pause and reflect on the beauty of the world around us, it has a way of putting our problems and stresses in perspective. We see that the same God who created the mountains and oceans is the same God who cares for us and loves us. Let's take time to enjoy the beauty of His creation, and to thank Him for the many gifts that He has given us. Above all, let's remember that every good and perfect gift comes from God (James 1:17), and that He alone is worthy of all our praise and gratitude.

A new november moon

(A beautiful mystery)

The next moon phase milestone will be the New Moon, which will occur on Nov. 23, at 5:57 p.m. EST (2257 GMT).

The new moon is the so-called "invisible phase of the moon," according to NASA because the illuminated side of the moon is facing away from Earth, toward the sun. The moon is also in the sky during the day, and without its Earth-facing side illuminated by the sun, observers can't really see it.

A new moon points to beginning (inside, Anew) in the rebirth of the heart (spirit) as the place of conception (the instrumental womb)

knowing the rebirth of the Son in (A new covenant of grace) promises rebirth of the body, now physical and temporal, to be made eternal

and the promise of earth’s rebirth in (Anew, genesis)

for the moon simply mirrors the Light of the sun (in humility) just as we do from the heart (holding the invisible and silent Spirit in the inner room becoming a part of our thought-lives, the inner voice)

giving expression on earth through writing and speaking and doing (initiated by Love) as the acts of the Body as we are each made of (silence & sound)

and it truly matters what we come to “believe…” in the heart and speak since each of our lives are being documented in a book contained in a heavenly Library

do you see the significance of this?

what we are carrying in the Temple is the most precious message in all of earth, greater than any work of fiction.

(to be sure)

Are you brave enough to carry this within you? to guard the space of the heart and the pure genesis of grace that is unadulterated by man?

the seed of the Church is pure in heart even though people have marred its image over History.

A post by John Parsons that points to the new Hebraic month of Kislev:

This evening at sundown marks "Rosh Chodesh Kislev" (which occurs for two days this year, including Thanksgiving Day). On the Biblical calendar the month of Kislev (כִּסְלֵו) is the ninth of the year (counting from Nisan), and it is also one of the "darkest," with the days progressively getting shorter and the nights getting progressively longer. Kislev is perhaps best known for the eight day holiday of Chanukah (חג החנוכה) which begins on the 25th of the month (Sun. Dec. 18th) and runs through the third day of the following month (of Tevet). Since there is always a new moon during the season of Chanukah, it is no wonder that this holiday represents an appropriate time to kindle the lights of faith, and especially to recall the advent of Yeshua the Messiah, the Light of the World (אוֹר הָעוֹלָם).

Chodesh Kislev is sometimes called the “month of dreams” because the weekly Torah portions for this month contain more dreams than any other in the Scriptures. No less than nine dreams (of the ten in the Torah) appear in the four portions of Vayetzei, Vayishlach, Vayeshev, and Miketz - all of which are usually read during the month of Kislev. In the Torah, the primary figure connected with dreams is Jacob’s son Joseph, who was nicknamed by his brothers as "that dreamer" and who was later named "Decipherer of Secrets" (Tzofnat Paneach) by Pharaoh (Gen. 41:45). Joseph was able to authentically mediate the spiritual and the physical realms through the Spirit of God within him (Gen. 41:38). Prophetically Joseph represents Yeshua the “disguised Egyptian” who likewise was rejected and hated by his brothers but who later became their savior (for more see “Mashiach ben Yosef”).

the discovery of gold in earth can spark a gold rush, but are people willing to seek (to “unearth”) the True and purest gold through the heart being “refined” in Light?

this is how we mine the eternal words conserved for us to see clear as daughters & sons of our beautiful mysterious Creator

we have to see that the pride and vengeance of man that has stained earth’s History will at some point be fully cleansed. the peace will be restored (there will be recompense) to start new after all the wars of mankind, healing the curse of sin and death that now exists in this world.

Love will rule in perfect Justice.

for those who fail to see that we have an eternal King, there is no Light at all. people who make themselves into their own “god” will not last forever.

but Love never ends…

God’s Beauty

Psalm104:24-25 ESV: “O Lord, how manifold are your works! In wisdom have you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. Here is the sea, great and wide, which teems with creatures innumerable, living things both small and great.” For the past few weeks, God has been watering his gardens, soaking the earth with rains from heaven followed by the warmth of the Sun. Seeds are bursting forth…

A new moon

the 9th of february 2024

And a post from yesterday by John Parsons:

This evening (at sundown) marks Rosh Chodesh Adar (רֹאשׁ חוֹדֶשׁ אַדָר), or the beginning of the Hebrew month of Adar. On the Biblical calendar the month of Adar is the *last month of the year* counting from Nisan, though during a Jewish “leap year” (as we have this year) an additional month of Adar, called Adar Sheni (or Adar II), is added to the calendar.

The month of Adar falls during February/March on the secular (goyishke) calendar. The 14th day of the last month of the year (i.e., either Adar or Adar Sheni during a leap year) marks the holiday of Purim -- which is always celebrated exactly 30 days before Passover (Megillah 1:4). During both Purim and Passover we celebrate God’s deliverance of His people, and therefore Adar is considered one of the happiest of the months of the Jewish year. As it says in the Talmud, “When Adar comes, joy is increased” (Ta'anit 29a).
