Yom Shli-shi, Adar 17, 6002 – March 6, 2018
The Last Time
Reflection is one of those things that has so much great power in our lives. It can heal, it can inflame, it can inflict, it can encourage. As dangerous as it sounds, one might hesitate to engage in it, not wanting to give chance a role to fall to the negative. And yet, we do need to consider honestly and learn from the past, if we are committed to not repeating that which was not good. One thought has come to me as I reflect, that causes me to do all I can to enhance each moment for the good. Given any event – a phone call to a loved one, a stranger looking for direction, a child trying to overcome inner fears to run a race – if I ask myself, “What if this is the very last time I have a chance to do this?”, my commitment to doing it well increases. And this is perhaps the most important message I can convey today about the life we build, moment by moment.
Colossians 3:23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
Whatever you find yourself doing today, make it count…
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come here to the hearts and minds of men. Let Your will be done here perfectly and without delay, as it is in heaven. Send us now Your provision, such that we might share with others. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Cleanse our hearts and minds, and we will be cleansed. Deliver us from the evil here. Restore unto Your people one thousandfold all the good that has been taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. Send in quickly the $424,523,962.53 that we might use it to promote the kingdom of God in the hearts of people here. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things of You, Father, in Your name YAH! We ask all these things in the name YAH Yeshuah. Amen.
