Retrospect of the last week..

• A Moses encounter: "I AM" responds with answers (not always immediately cognitively comprehended), logic (GOD logic functions totally different to our subjective logic) and encouragement (courage to start the journey, and in FAiTH is all the courage you should need). "I AM" is knowable, delights in conversation (GOD has many forms of communication), and desires (DOES NOT NEED... but DESIRES!! JOH!!!) our friendship.
• GOD's right-way-up knowledge in OUR WORLD, very often seems like an upside down starting point for us.
• Society works from the outside in, GOD works the opposite way.
• Daniel 11:32 (Amplified Bible)

³² And such as violate the covenant he shall pervert and seduce with flatteries, but the people who know their God shall prove themselves strong and shall stand firm and do exploits [for God].

• Adonai Avinu... The LORD OUR FATHER (HELLO! concept).
• Adonai El Elyon... The LORD MOST High GOD (a universe plus sized notion in itself). 
• GOD is NOT a question, any or a conclusion, or a definition... HE is by definition undefinable!
• Bushes burning in deserts are like babies in managers - Philip Baker.
• Adonai Yir'eh... The LORD who sees, who provides (always aware, never a blind eye).
• Hebrews 11:16 (Amplified Bible)

¹⁶But the truth is that they were yearning for and aspiring to a better and more desirable country, that is, a heavenly [one]. For that reason God is not ashamed to be called their God [even to be surnamed their God--the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob], for He has prepared a city for them.^(A)

• Adonai Mekaddishkhem... The LORD OUR Sanctifier (he blesses, absolves sin, purify's corrupt hearts and minds, anoints us with his Holy Spirit because of the Blood of the Lamb...).
• Adonai Nissi... The LORD my Miracle.
• YHWH... Yod, He, Vav, He (literally YHWH, intentionally unpronounceable).
• Hebrews 12:28-29 (Amplified Bible)

²⁸Let us therefore, receiving a kingdom that is firm and stable and cannot be shaken, offer to God pleasing service and acceptable worship, with modesty and pious care and godly fear and awe;
²⁹For our God [is indeed] a consuming fire.^(A)

• Adonai Osenu... The LORD our maker (he KNOWS every intricate detail of who we are; while we are still trying to figure ourselves out, HE KNOWS US ENTIRELY!)
• Adonai Tsidkeinu... The LORD our righteousness.
• Faith in GOD is not calculated by the quantity of knowledge or theology we have, but FAITH IS ABOUT connecting with the Holy Spirit and expressing our hearts to our FATHER ( our honest and uncensored feelings).
• The truth of an old Arabic saying: The Soul travels at the pace of a camel.
• We are designed to live our lives with the SHEPHERD (we are ACTUALLY his FLOCK); if you go it alone you are headed for disaster.
• The character of the Shepherd is to LEAD!
• In times of great anguish, there is always a meal (Jesus celebrated Passover as he descended into the anguish of Gethsemane and the Cross). - Philip Baker
• GOD is interested in people who willingly make themselves, their hearts and their spirits available.
• Yahweh IS NOT limited by human frailty or fallibility. - Philip Baker
• John 14:19 (The Message)

^18-20"I will not leave you orphaned. I'm coming back. In just a little while the world will no longer see me, but you're going to see me because I am alive and you're about to come alive. At that moment you will know absolutely that I'm in my Father, and you're in me, and I'm in you."
