Today I presented a dear friend of mine this pomegranate...........
I gave it to her with this prayer:
"May the abundance of seeds from this fruit represent the abundance of blessings today, and for the coming year."
Today is Rosh Hashanah........Although I am a Christian and do not necessarily celebrate all the Jewish holidays or traditions, I have great respect for them. Some of them I wish we would celebrate and uphold as Christians........
Today, in my understanding, is the celebration of the day God made the world. The end of the old and thus the New Year ahead............A day to look forward to the hopes of the blessings of the coming year and preparation for Yom Kippur, the tradition of atonement........
I am envious of these.......I wish Chrsitians, as a whole, would take more time and intention to meditate on these things........
What a blessing......
Wishing and praying especially for my friend today but for us all as we look ahead to the hopes of what is ahead, of what is in store........
May we be mercifully and graciously blessed by our Father in heaven.......
Amen.......
