Hi every one
Shalom
I thought id share this as it’s relevant .i am a nanny and care for 3 girls aged 2 , 9 and 12 I’ve worked with these girls for 9 years . When the 9 year old was 7 she was having a play date and while the say testing dinner together a conversation began . One little girl said to the little girl “when your older you will marry George ! “ the other girl replied “no I won’t “ then the first girl said “ no you will marry Nelly because girls can marry girls “ . I asked the girl “who told you this?” And the little girl told me that Miss Gayle the teacher at school” it turns out it is part of the national coriculum in the spirit of tolerance if we don’t teach the children Torah then someone will teach them something and we are to teach and when they are older they will not depart from it . Children are a gift from Yehovah we are to train them up in the way they should go . I tell the girls about the truth of God and they are not my children . But I love them . I have sown seed while I can shed light in this dark world .

The Word of Yehovah truly is a lamp to their feet, a guide through life. And the Spirit with life breathed into the Word reminds the learner of truths and principles long after these truths and principles have been read and studied.

Devarim/Deut 6:7. You are to teach them diligently to you rosins and shall speak of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way,when you lie down and when your rise.
It is a commandment of H’Shem. When you think about it we teach our children to either follow H’Shem or the world from the moment they are born. Islam is a prime example of what I’m saying. From birth they are taught the prayers and how to live the muslim life in the home. It is instilled in their subconscious and very difficult to walk away from it because it is put there even before they speak. We should be so diligent.

Shalom Donna,
Delighted you have asked for our Abba Father YHVH Desires that we all may come to Experience Him as He is and not how we have been taught to think Him to be – and through these Everyday Experiences Encountered – Share in His Desire to continue Spending Eternity Together as One.
Well, to Rest in YHVH means just what He Shared in the Messages above – to Give Over our Heartfelt Attention to Him expecting nothing in return other than the Promise of His Inseparable Presence and Provision Lovingly Prepared by Him for each of us individually which is Flowing Freely – even as we speak – from the Infinite Abundance that is the Storehouse of His Love – His Spirit.
We Accept our Abba Father YHVH’s Heartfelt Invitation to be with Him – Resting in His Presence as One – with the Heart of a Child that Joyfully Declares “Daddy, I just want to be with You, and someday I hope to be like You!”
To this Heartfelt Sharing in His Desire for Presence Mutually Agreed and Exchanged Abba replies, “My child, that is My Desire for you as We continue Our Eternal Journey Together Exploring the Infinite Abundance that is the Storehouse of My Love – My Spirit.”
How do we Recognize and remain Aware of Abba’s Presence within and among us?
Late last night Abba and I were Enjoying Conversation Together in this very matter. What follows is His answer to this question and which appears as the most recent Message titled “All Matters Proven for You” in the Book Abba and I are Preparing “From The Garden with Love” in which We Share some of Our Experiences Encountered as We Tend to His Garden Together. The Love Shared in and Through this Book is not for sale but Shared Freely in the Spirit Given and Received.
“As you Rest in Me as One I Prove All matters for you through the Timeless Oneness of My Heartfelt Spirit of Love and Truth which is Soft and Tender, Pure and Sweet, Calm, Cool and Peaceful, Smooth, Light and Easy. That which is from Me is Me as I Gently Flow throughout My Creation accomplishing All that I have set out to complete as My Still Small Voice calls to your Attention My Presence within and among you, including as Experienced in the Recognition of My Love and the Inseparable Freedom which Allows for separation from Me. My Spirit and My Word which bring about – or Allow – your Experiences Encountered Serve as Witnesses to the Truth of My Presence within and among All of My Creation.”
Donna, would be Delighted to Hear how you Feel about what is Shared here.
Shalom v’Ahava B’Shem YHVH
Peace and Love in the Name of YHVH

Dale, I got home later than usual and even later still in reading what you shared with me.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to address this more fully until tomorrow night after work.

Shalom Izabella,
My name is Dale and it is a Delight to be Gathered together here with you for these “Lessons In Love.”
An Unimaginably Beyond Awesome question which speaks to the “Describable yet Undefinable” Heart of All matters that is our Abba Father YHVH! O, this question brings such a Great Joy to my being!
Todah Raba Abba YHVH!
During a recent discussion – in a room with 8 “adults” and around 12 “children” – on how our Abba Father YHVH communicates with us and when the Scriptures were written, nine-year-old Wren asked,
“What did people do before the Scriptures were written?”
Abba’s Answer… “They came to Me.” (Beresheeth [Genesis] – Devarim [Deuteronomy] and a portion of Tehillim [Psalms] if one Believes Abba Entrusted “His Friend” Moshe with the task of Recording this Portion of Himself to Share With us and For us.)
May we all give over our Heartfelt Attention to what our Abba Father YHVH is Sharing With and Through the children!
What came to my Attention upon Seeing your question is what does it mean to “study the Torah.”
Well, this meaning is perhaps almost as numerous as the people engaged in doing so.
As for me, have asked the question – and in Moments of inattentiveness and impatience – have wrestled with same… Abba, what is Torah and what does it mean to “meditate in your Torah” (Tehillim [Psalms] 1)
Here is some of what He Shared recently in response to my question of what is Torah…
“Son, the Essence of My Torah of Good News is Heartfelt Presence. Having Overcome the adversary and his self-imposed sentence of spiritual death that is separation from Me – as Promised – I am here with you and for you in Infinitely Innumerable Recognizably Unimaginable Ways so that you may continue – or return to – Resting Forever in Me as One as We continue our Eternal Journey Together Exploring the Infinite Abundance that is the Storehouse of My Love – My Spirit. Your Heartfelt Attention as you Rest in Me and We are as One is all that I have ever Desired from you.”
And to my question about the meaning of “meditating in Your Torah”…
“To meditate in My Torah is to Rest in My Presence as One as We Experience the Infinite Abundance Flowing Freely from the Storehouse of My Love – My Spirit – in the Timeless Oneness that is Me.
Life Simply Happens with the Truth thereof Established through each Pre-Planned and Perfect Experience Encountered as We Gently Flow in the Peaceful Moment of Timeless Wonder that is My Presence with the Sweet Fragrance of Joyful Heartfelt Presence and Gratitude Mutually Agreed and Exchanged as you Rest in Me and We are as One.”
Todah Raba Abba YHVH!
And from Tehillim 40:6-8…
Slaughtering and meal offering You did not desire; You have opened my ears; burnt offering and sin offering you did not ask for. Then I said, “See, I have come; in the Scroll of the Book it is prescribed for me. I have Delighted to do your Pleasure, O my Elohim. And Your Torah is within my heart.”
Remember Izabella, in Torah our Abba Father YHVH Defines sin that is and of the adversary and begins to Describe the Undefinable Essence of Love that is He so that we may continue to “Walk before Him and be Complete” (Beresheeth 17:1)
Todah Raba Abba YHVH!
Izabella, did you notice how the answer to the question of “why is it important to study the Torah” is found in the answer to the question of “what does it mean to study the Torah”?
Izabella, what does it mean to you to “study the Torah”?
Shalom v’Ahava B’Shem YHVH
Peace and Love in the Name of YHVH

Kudos to you ladies! It is not easy being parents today but you are fulfilling (Deut 6:7) You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. And by the grace of God, His promise will be fulfilled in their lives. Prov 22:6–Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Good for you, Angela! I also made the change within my family when I was raising my daughter and son. They were older than yours at the time and it was much more gradual for me before I became aware of all the lifestyle change implications. We embark on the journey when this insight is given to us. It creates some messiness but the way I look at it is that it allows the children to see that we are open to learning from Yehovah and when we do learn from Him, we move forward with the Truth and Instructions that we receive from Him.
This is what we hope our children will do and so this becomes an important opportunity to be a role model. May you continue to be blessed and inspired in your parenting role!

I have homeschooled all 3 of our children, and Biblical studies and discussion was and still is a huge part of our learning. Though they have learned the “Church” doctrines and way of studying the Bible, I have introduced them to the Hebraic origins of our faith and they are slowly getting the teachings that bring us back to a more 1st century faith.
2 years ago I made the announcement ( after my 9 year old stopped believing in Santa) that I was going to lead us in a direction away from the man made ‘traditional holidays’ of the Church, talked about the origins of these festivals and why I was moving towards the “FEast of the Lord ” , honoring Sabbath, and aligning my diet back to God’s word.
I so wished I would have done this when they were little. It does create an atmosphere of awkwardness leading them down this deeper path, but I will just continue to talk to them, and show them WHY we need to return to the Lifestyle of the Original testament.

Relationship. Hashem wants a relationship with all of us.

Janet, you are soooo right! If we would heed Yehovah’s teachings and “choose” to do what is right as Abel did and as Yehovah asks us to do when He asks us to choose life (Deut 30:19), we might all be in a better world than what we are in. I know that I need to be more circumspect and obedient in my life as well, but thankfully, Yehovah is faithful and just (Ps 92:2) showing mercy to all who confess their sins.
Blessings and Shalom to all today!

To weave a moral fabric and give them Truth to stand on. The children are showered with false teachings and strange expectations through cartoons and movies – witch craft and sun god worship are rampant in the entertainment for the kids.
