Shalom family. It has been awhile since I've sat down and put my thoughts to paper in an effort to share and, if possible, bless my Sinaitic family. Today, though, the spirit of The Most High is high and my heart is light. Even now as I type, my eyes are filled with tears and my being full of the goodness of our loving Abba. 

 As I began to prepare for the day ahead this morning, I allowed my mind to scan over the events in my life in the last 7-8 years and found myself at extreme peace, with a feeling of abundant happiness. Asking myself why I've made some of the decisions I've made, and truly understanding the nature of Yah, I was able to answer with confidence and conviction. Knowing that I am now in a place where being different than the masses is what the Most High wants from me, made me feel so loved, so covered and so blessed.

 As a child and young adult, I always seemed to be different than those around me. I always sought out answers to the questions no one asked, and strived to do something other than what society and sometimes family wanted from me. I refused to assimilate to the norm and embraced the idea of not being a statistic or an example of how the nations percieved me, a Hebrew woman. This same pattern of thought has followed me up until  now, through changes in my life.

At 31 years old, I have done some strange and abnormal things in the eyes of my biological family, maybe to you, and people are starting to wonder if I am okay. Let me say here, I am fine, people. I am truly blessed. I have been able to achieve something that many people cannot. I have allowed my love, obedience and faith in the Most High Yah to guide my decisions instead of my own carnal mind. I have realized and accepted that I am human and flawed, but if obedient and submissive to the will of Yah, I will come out on top. I have begun to encourage my children to be different, to think independently from the rest of the world and to live life according to what Yah says. This will bring an everlasting peace of mind and happiness. The Most High gave us all that we need to govern our lives and be at peace in His scriptures. The way we interact with one another, the way we interact with Him, has all been written down and given to us. One needs not struggle if they simply study and apply. I get this, finally, I get this. So why not teach my children to live differently than the rest of the world. If you apply the laws of the Most High, the laws set forth to govern the actions of man by man will not be an issue for you because you're going to live and act in righteousness. Jeremiah 10: 1 tells us to not be like the rest of the world....It's a beautiful thing.

 For those of you that don't know, my Ish and I have moved our family to Atlanta for personal reasons. The move has been easy and the blessings abundant. The Most High has shown favor, and for that I am thankful. In a time where people are struggling to make end meet, losing jobs, houses, cars and being separated from their families, Yah has kept us together and we're doing well. Looking around us we see so much pain and suffering, but to know that through His mercy and kindness we have been blessed and given a chance to serve His cause, gives me so much joy. 

Since we've been here, we've tried to seek out others like ourselves and have been unsuccessful. So many congregations are missing many key elements in what it truly means to serve and obey Yah.They are attempting to feed the people with tainted meats, manipulating the Word to fit their flawed understanding. The nature of man is abominable. It is our prayer that these people will find the true, raw teachings of Yah and begin to live accordingly. All this to say, Arieyah if you are reading this blog, THANK YOU. Thank you for being an instrument, a teaching tool for Yah's word. The foundation recieved at NCCI has really being a driving force behind the enlightenment and joy I now feel knowing the nature of our El. Those that are teaching the TRUTH untainted, are few and far in between. I would never have had the knowledge and understanding I have today had Yah not directed me to an assembly with a Morei that loved Him and His Word the way you do. Your passion has been encouraging.

For the rest of my family reading this, remember to love Yah first. Doing so will allow you to love yourself and your brother in righteousness and truth. Don't conform yourselves to fit into the societal structure given to you. The Most High was there when you were not living righteous, so surely He will not neglect you now. Stay strong in prayer, faith and love.

Peace & Blessings
