The Biblical 12th Month of the Year, 2026
The 12th Month is the last month of the Hebrew calendar. It signifies the end of the agricultural year; the final harvest having been completed in the 7th Month, and celebrated at the Feast Of Sukkot. I am a bible literalist; meaning if Yahuah indicates a thing is a certain way, then for me: 'It is what it is.' Therefore, I choose to stick with the numerical names for the months, as the bible does on numerous occasions. For Example, it is written in Exodus 16:1: '...on the

The Divine Display:
The Exodus in 2020 Shalom Everyone! Yahuah's Blessings On You and Your Household; Throughout the month of February I'm blogging about: 1. The Count & Yahuah's Heavenly Calendar, 2. The connection between The Shabbats and The Numerical Sequence of 8-15-22-29, 3. The 6-7-8- Algorithm. So, for the last week, I thought it would be cool for those who've never seen bible events displayed on a modern-day calendar; to actually see the rhythm and accuracy displayed right in front

The Divine Restoration:
The Eighth Day Similar to the Shabbats and the correct New Moons, the 8th Day is also consecrated and Set-Apart unto Yahuah. It represents the physical and spiritual relationship He desires to have with us, provided we meet certain purification standards, as we cannot come before Him in an 'unclean' state. Following is the Torah on how His created were to present themselves before him. The Physical Requirements of the 8th Day Leprosy In the bible, if a person found themselves

The Divine Algorithm:
The Rule Of 6 and 7 In the first 5 days of the Creation, Yahuah provided everything mankind would need to sustain his life, prior to breathing life into Adam on the 6th Day; and then Yahuah rested, forever establishing the 6th and 7th Days as paramount in the governance of man's daily life. 'Remember the day of the Set-Apart Shabbat. Six days you labor and do all your work; but the seventh day is the Shabbat of Yahuah Elohayka: In it you shall not do any work: you, nor

The Divine Design
The Creation Was Not A Random Occurrence Three things stand out regarding conditions prior to the Creation: 1. There was Silence 2. There was Darkness 3. There was Primordial Waters That should not be construed to mean that those conditions existed as a state of Chaos and Confusion. Absolutely not. Yahuah is not the author of confusion. They had a purpose and as such, existed so that Yahuah could speak another reality into being; a reality already known to Him before He set t

A Story Between Genres
The following is an excerpt from an unpublished manuscript I wrote in 2009, and whose final genre I have yet to decide. It is currently written in Close Third-Person POV, and diverges at the fork between Nonfiction Memoir and Literary Fiction. It could go either way. Whichever genre emerges, it is the authenticity of the story that is most important. The following excerpt is a passage written to add depth and context to a pivotal character. The story is a work-in-progress.

Genesis 1:16
A Case For The Lesser Light The Full Moon rising to rule the night sky Every now and then, I like to pull this video out; for no other reason than I find it totally awesome. We've been told that the moon is a dead rock. That it has virtually no light of it's own and whatever light it gives forth, is reflected light from the sun. Well Yahuah, Creator of Heaven and Earth, and myself, disagree. According to the Creation Testimony, the Earth is stationary, with people moving on i

An Ancient Measurement Of Time
A Full Moon, signifying the end of a lunar cycle. How did ancient biblical people measure time? How did Adam, Abraham, Moses, the prophets and Yahusha know when to keep the Shabbats and the Appointed-Times of Yahuah? We cannot know for certain, as none of us were there, however, we can draw on historical and biblical evidence to reach a decisive conclusion: they would not have relied on calendars devised by man. Rather, having understood the guidelines set forth by Yahuah d

Learning To 'Count The Days' - When You Have Dyscalculia
Yahuah has a sense of humor. I have always had issues with numbers. I'm not sure if my elementary school teachers were aware of it - I would like to think they were, considering it would've been within their scope of practice to notice such things. All I know is that my inability to navigate the world of numbers became painfully obvious to me by the time I was in, what used to be called, junior high. In those days, a student was often called up to the black board to work out

The Benefits of an Editorial Assessment
Whether you’re submitting traditionally, or self-publishing, I cannot stress enough the importance of having your manuscript professionally edited. It is analogous to having a polished resume on hand when applying for a coveted job; you want to put your best foot forward. To that end I’ve found it well worth the investment to hire the best editor you can afford - I’m just keeping it real. That’s coming from someone whose mother was a high-school English teacher. She was a s

My First Pitch
My blog is about my writing process. The ups, the downs, the attention to detail required to achieve my goals. Although I’ve been writing stories since I could hold a pencil, I began writing seriously in 2007. I completed my first novel in 2009. Since then, my primary goal is to become traditionally published. That is easier said, than done; and sometimes it can be a bit much. For example: I may have mentioned that I’m having my author website redesigned to be more engaging f
