Va`Era -- and I appeared (Postcards)


I love ADONAI, 
for He hears my voice, my cries.
 Psalm 116:1



For God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.  
1John 3:20



Just a few light heart-ed interpretations, drawings inspired from the first days of the New Year and together with some impressions from the Parsha
 (Torah reading, from Va'Era, Exodus 6:2~9:35, for complete readings see sidebar link to the readings!  ).  
Greetings from today!
 
The first, above, was from God `appearing`in the heart-shaped cloud.
(Remember, Va'Era means "and I appeared)
In the second I drew a frog kite,  as an expression of remembering the plagues from the Exodus we read about in this weeks parsha, and being set free.  

Therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Messiah Yeshua.   
2Timothy 2:1

As we read the parsha, look at the miracle!
ADONAI said to Moses, to say to Pharaoh,
 "Let my people go, so that they may worship Me".  
Now we read these words and Thank you, LORD.
Thousands of years after the Exodus. 
May we say, Here we are!
You have set us free so that we may worship You!  May we always remember to tell of Your wondrous deeds, that You heard our cries and You took us for a people.  
Forever You are our God, who brought us out of Egypt.

I will take you to Myself as a people, and I will be your God.  You will know that I am ADONAI your God, who brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.  
Exodus 6:7

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
1John 4:4
