Shabbat 9/21/2024

Shabbat Shalom!

As we enter the Autumn season and look forward to the Fall feasts of The Lord, we are also taking stock of our lives and desiring to bring them into alignment with God’s kingdom priorities. That should always be our focus, but especially at this time of the year! There are so many things happening in our nation and around the world, sometimes it feels like we are on a roller coaster that is out of control. This week we saw another assassination attempt on Donald Trump, “bad guys" in the Middle East being taken out as they answered their pagers and walkie talkies by the thousands, and of course many of us are dealing with family and medical issues. Some may be quietly asking, “God, where are you?”. and the silence is deafening. I choose to find comfort during these dangerous days in His Word, and such Scriptures as Proverbs 19:10, “The Name of Adonai is a strong tower. The righteous run into it and is set safely up high”. Stay strong and in His Word, empowered by the Ruach Ha Kodesh that lives in you!

Join us for Shabbat this week, September 21st, as we meet at The Dwelling Place at 11am! The address is 16800 W.9th Ave Golden, 80401. I will be sharing a very timely word in our series on the Awe of God, entitled, LET’S CLEAN UP OUR ACT!  Don’t worry, it will be very encouraging! We will also be joined by our guest worship leader, Vanessa Remley. There will be a potluck Oneg following the service, so bring a dish to share and stay for fellowship!
