Tales from the West Texas Dust
though, is the amount of time spent in the lab doing experiments based on assignments in class. I guess the same thing applies to the spirit - if you don't use it, you lose it.
We all have our own customs and traditions in observing the various holidays we keep in our modern world. In my case, I thank God that my knowledge of Him is not merely in the theoretical - but based primarily on the school of hard knocks and practical experience. I hope that the lab time I put in was put to good use for Him and that I passed the necessary test. I hope that maybe that little boy saw a little bit of God's compassion and mercy for him and for all of us.
But most of all, I hope that this Feast of Tabernacles will be a chance for all of us to put in the spiritual lab time we need to help others. Let's let the spiritual lab time we put in this Feast be a productive and useful time. When we do so, not only will the recipient of that generousity benefit - but you will, too. Here's hoping that for you and yours will accept this article as my special Fall Holy Days card from myself out here in the West Texas dust to ya'll and that this feast of Tabernacles for you will be the BEST ONE YET!!! From all of us here at the ranch, may ya'll have a great Fall Holy Day Season! (For those who are Jewish, please pardon the amateurish attempts of this Texan writing in and possibly butchering the Hebrew language!) Shabbat Shalom, Khag-Sameakh, Shana Tova - and peace to you in Messiah until next year in Jerusalem!
