Swept up in the hustle and bustle of life

12Jan24

Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London.

*Swept up in the hustle and bustle of life*

Since God is worthy because of who He is—without doing a thing—all we have to do is slow down and experience Him. Because it’s impossible to engage the source of life without responding in gratitude. We can be sure like David in Psalms 23:6

• NLT version - Surely Your goodness and *unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life*, and I will live in the house of the Lord forever. 

Peace be upon Israel and Us. 🙏🙏🙏
Have a Blessed weekend!!!
In His Grip..

The Greek verb for "keep" (tērēsete) is future tense and follows a conditional — love isn't presented as a prerequisite for a transaction ("obey...
