Shalom!

As mentioned previously, I’ve been out of work for a while but I’m still working from home with my small resale business, and applying for jobs that I believe I would be good at.  However, the one thing that I think that has been keeping employers from considering me is that I keep the Sabbath.  A majority of employers, it seems, want you to be available to work all seven days of the week.  Honestly, I don’t mind working Sunday through Friday, but Friday sundown until Saturday sundown I’m commanded to rest, and I can, want, and will obey the Most High.  Do I do it perfectly?  No, because I’m still on a journey in learning The Way and freeing my mind from the slavery of sin.  It’s often the case that human beings want me to do THEIR will instead of HIS will, but that’s where they will be sorely disappointed because I don’t plan on compromising anymore (that includes those closest to me who can see my faults in trying to walk this narrow path).

Will I ever get hired by an employer who respects my obedience to the Most High?  I certainly hope so!  If not, perhaps that means my Father in heaven has other plans for me.  He continues to bless me with having a roof over my head, and clean food to eat.  I have not wanted for a thing since I’ve been out of work.  When I needed money, He provided either by some unusual means, or from the selling of one of my items online.  Praise be to the Most High, my Provider!!!

This has been a strange time in my life, and I’m curious as to what will happen next?  Until then, I will do my best to keep His commandments, and walk in His ways.  Blessings to you all!  Until next time my friends, the Son says, “If you love me, keep my commandments.” Will you?

Hello people!  In my studies, I recently ran across some information regarding the Hebrew origins of black slaves that were brought to America.  It’s a very intriguing and interesting concept that has been put forth, but my question is, “Is it true?”  I’ve watched a couple of YouTube documentaries supporting the historical narrative that they are, and I’ll soon be watching a few that are debunking the claim in order to hopefully find the truth of the matter.  Another question I’ve been asking myself is, “Am I wasting my time researching this?”  I personally don’t esteem one ethnic group above another, but I do know that the God of scripture made His New Covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.  Please forgive me if I don’t know more than that at the moment because I’m still learning!

If it is true, of what significance will it be?  Will black Americans be joyful to finally be knowledgeable of who they really are rather than merely descendant’s of African slaves?  Will it draw them closer to the God of the Bible?  Will they drop all of their current culture, and embrace the Hebrew culture and language?  I could ask several more questions, but honestly I’m curious as to what the mass population of black people in America would do if this is found to be true.

I’m willing to embrace truth.  In the meantime, I will look into this subject hoping to find the truth about it.  Currently, I’m saddened to find out that some are taking this information and are literally esteeming themselves to be greater than others.  From my studies, the only one we are to esteem is the God of the Bible and His Son.  Until next time my friends, the Son says “If you love me, keep my commandments”. Will you?
