Thoughts about thie BetweenThe2Eternities Place

It stops me, when I look at the sky in early morning as I prepare for me "quiet time with YOU, LORD"

To get my mind to accept that YOU see me, know me and YOU cherish those few moments I give you --- to accept this is astounding to my thoughts.

I sit there, knowing how I have a rebellious issue in my life - food...that struggle lies ahead of me even as I write this.  My weakness seems more powerful than your strength -  NO, NO, NO!!! But it feels that way.  Oh, how patient YOU are with me.  Will I ever win the battle over this issue?

HIS NAME 18

JAH  "I AM" 
THE ONE WHO IS THE SELF-EXISTENT ONE

Shorter form of YAHWEH.  
If is often used when combined with other names or phrases.  
Hallelujah means "Praise Yah (the LORD), 
Elijah means "God is Yah (the LORD)," 
and Joshua means "Yah (the LORD) is my salvation." 

God never changes.  
HIS promises never fail.  
When we are faithless, HE is faithful.  
God promises HIS continuing presence.

HIS NAME 17

TSIDKENU   THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS

All people sin and fall short of God's glory, 
but God freely makes us righteous through faith 
in Jesus Christ. (Romans 3:22, 23)  

God promised to send a King who will reign wisely 
and do what is just and right.  
The people will live in safety. (Jeremiah 23:5, 6)

Jesus is the King who would come from David's line, and is the one who imparts HIS righteousness to us.
