When You Take Your Shabbat & Shalom With You
Saturday, I had the privilege of being in the company of five faith-filled authors from different walks of life and different walks with Adonai. These amazing folks wrote in a variety of genres. One author, Deborah Edmisten, is a dear friend I met in a local writers’ group. Three others, Betty Kulich, Michael Parker, and Dianna Caraballo, I’ve met at previous events. And Marrissa Saunders was the new girl on the block, but she fit in with this group so seamlessly, it felt as if we’d known her forever.
Kern’s Home & Garden & Christian Bookstore hosted their Spring Open House, and the above-mentioned friends and I, all local authors, participated. This is the third such event that I’ve attended at Kern’s, and I must say the word I kept hearing yesterday was “magical.”
The greenhouses were a small glimpse into what Eden must have looked like, and truly, Adonai walked among us. A sweet Spirit pervaded the day as we authors came together in love and friendship. I am blessed to have these writers in my life.
The best part was when some of the authors had the opportunity to pray with patrons. And that’s when it hit me. Every writer present brought rest and peace with them yesterday as they ministered to the individuals who approached their respective table. The unseen hand of Adonai directed each person to the correct author, who in turn reached out to customers via their writing. HaShem was glorified repeatedly, and I knew this to be true when the people who conversed with us were so open about their faith and needs.
If you weren’t able to visit with us yesterday, fear not! The books written by these wonderful writers are still available, and if you’ll bear with me and stay tuned, I promise to make it easy for you to locate their books. Until then ~
Baruch HaShem!

For this mitzvah, which I am giving you
today, is not too hard for you,
it is not beyond your reach.

What could be easier than resting
in the true peace of Adonai?

Greetings, Realmers! Another week of editing occurred, so stay tuned for an update on that front. Otherwise, there isn’t much to report. I wish you rest and peace this Shabbat. Baruch HaShem for the sunshine in my neck of the woods. I hope you’re enjoying beautiful weather where you are. And now I must investigate the noises coming from my garage, which indicate my son the welder is out there creating who knows what!

Isaiah 27:13
On that day a great shofar will sound.
Those lost in the land of Ashur will come,
also those scattered through the land of Egypt;
and they will worship ADONAI
on the holy mountain in Yerushalayim.
Shabbat Shalom and remember to pray
for the peace of Yerushalayim!

Shabbat Shalom to all those
praying for peace!
May He who blessed our fathers, Avraham, Yitzchak, and Yaakov bless the soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces, in their standing guard upon our land and the cities of our God on land, in the air, and in the sea.
May the Lord give our enemies that rise against us plagues in front of them.
May the Holy One, blessed be He, guard and rescue our soldiers from all trouble and distress and from all affliction and illness; and send blessing and success in all the work of their hands.
May He crush those that hate us below them and crown them with the crown of salvation and with the wreath of victory.
And through them let the verse be fulfilled (Deuteronomy 20:4),
“For it is the Lord, your God, that walks with you to fight for you against your enemies to save you.”
And let us say, Amen.

In a speech to the Senate on January 22, 1917, President Woodrow Wilson called for the European war to be brought to an end through “a peace without victory.” This, he argued, was the only sort of peace that could produce a lasting settlement: Victory would mean peace forced upon the loser, a victor’s terms imposed upon the vanquished. President Wilson was mere a politician who would spew whatever he believed people wanted to hear and who clearly did not understand that peace will never be achieved without victory when you face an enemy hellbent on destroying you. And that is why we ended up with a second World War.
Israel, unlike America who, although buffered on two sides by vast oceans still felt the touch of the enemy on both coasts, is a country about the size of New Jersey, surrounded by enemies, and virtually land locked. Israel does not have the luxury of stopping until her enemies are vanquished. Still, in the face of great adversity from all sides, Israelis came together to fight as one.
My prayer for Israel is peace ~ the peace that can only be achieved by victory with the help of Adonai. My prayer for Israel is that they will enjoy a day of rest this Shabbat. My prayer for Israel includes blessing:
