She-Devil

Out in the cold, dark night

So here we are, almost nine weeks after moving out of our rented house, from which we were being evicted, into the brand spanking new housing association property.

Et Lechem Chu'keinu Tein Lanu Ha-Yom. U'ma'chal Lanu Al Chovoteinu Keshe'mechalnu Af Anu Lechayaveinu, Ve'Al Tevienu Lidei Nisayon, Ela Tatzileinu Min Ha-Ra. …

Moving On

This prayer was at the end of the book "The Grace Outpouring" and I hope it's ok to quote it here in its entirety. "I felt I had to share it as it seems so appropriate, it could have been written just for me: "Father, I acknowledge the reality of who I am. I acknowledge …
