The Torah

1/22/2018

 
Good afternoon,
                A Jewish Rabbi told his students, “Those who study Torah (the first five books of the Old Testament) give light wherever they are.”  There is nothing wrong with the study of Torah, even for Christians, after all Jesus surely spent many hours with Torah.   Yet, as Christians, our Torah is the living God; God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.   When we spend time in focused prayer and meditation on God, the light of the holy and the divine will find a home in our lives.  Christians throughout history and around the world will affirm this!  I challenge you, spend five minutes a day in quiet prayer and meditation.  I believe each one of us will “lighten up” within and become brighter presence among those with whom we live and move and have our being.  “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16) 
Grace and peace,
Pastor Michael
