Prayer for restored health

I am ready for good health and wellness for our family.

It seems at least one person has been achey and sniffley since July.

I have been doiling out Vitamin C and Echinacha, onion soup and grapefruit seed extract, fortified orange juice and zinc, Sambucol and colloidal silver, Mullein and a whole host of teas and herbals.

I have been sending the children outside to soak up some sun, making them go on walks for the fresh air and exercise, and making sure we are all well-hydrated. I have been getting them to bed for plenty of rest. I have been cooking good, healthy meals.... Yet, we are still somewhat puny.

I keep telling myself:

"And let us not be weary in well doing:

for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not."

Galatians 6:9

To paraphrase Moses, "Heal us now, Oh Father!"

I'm not sure what else I need to be doing to build up immunities and I'm afraid if I stop, this flu will hit us all with full force! Right now, Husband feels very poorly and my oldest daughter seems to be dragging.

I am praying for healing:

Heal us, oh Lord, and we shall be healed; save us, and we shall be saved,

for the one we praise is You.

Bring complete healing for all our sicknesses,

for, oh God, you are our faithful compassionate Healer and King.

Blessed are you, Lord, the healer of the sick of Israel.

And this is the confidence that we have in him,

that, if we ask any thing according to his will,

he heareth us:

And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask,

we know that we have the petitions

that we desired of him.

1 John 5:14-15

catching up...

I send a weekly Shabbat post to family and friends letting them know what's going on with us and how a gentile can learn to keep Shabbat. I decided these emails would fit nicely here...

This is from May 22, 2009

We are busy preparing for our Dinner and Bible Study. The little ones have been jumping around yelling, "Tonight is Shabbat!" They love Shabbat, partly because they can have special treats! LOL!!

Tonight's tentative menu:

gluten free flat bread, I hope it turns out this time!

Big Salad

Lentils

Brown rice w/ savory herbs

steamed veggies

raw veggies

dips and sauces

grilled chicken for the guests

fresh fruit

This week's study is taken from Numbers 1:1-4:20, Hosea 1:10-2:20, and I Corinthians 12:12-20.

Here is a quote from http://www.TorahCalendar.com...

"Today the Parashah is Be-Midbar which means 'In the Wilderness.' Be-Midbar is also the Hebrew name for the book of Numbers. Be-Midbar was the Parashah on the first Sabbath after the ascension of the Messiah.

Tonight is Shabbat Mevarekhin which means "Sabbath of Blessing." It is the last Sabbath before the new moon. Shabbat Mevarekhin does not occur in Month 6 as the entire month anticipates the new moon of Month 7."

Shabbat Shalom everyone!

Sabbath Peace...

Holy Conversations

I just have to share this. My 5 year old son was yelling out the window, listening to his voice echo back and was soooo excited. He kept yelling, "Hello!, Can you hear me? Hi! This is Joshie! I love you!" I said, "Are you playing with your echo?" He said, "No, Mommy, I'm talking to God!"
