Rosh Hashanah – or the Feast of Trumpets – rings in the Jewish New Year with 100 blasts of the shofar. It begins the High Holy Days and is a time for celebration as well as reflection. As Jewish people the world over consider the coming year, they pray for God’s forgiveness and that He will “seal” them in the Book of Life for the year ahead. Year by year, they pray to be acceptable in His sight. As Believers, we have been brought near to God through the righteousness of Messiah and are sealed in the Lamb’s Book of Life! (Ephesians 2:13 and 1:13.)
Welcome the Jewish year 5777!
In this article, we drill down a few layers to discover that what we really want out of life is common to us all. For some, having these deep desires and needs met is just wishful thinking. But for Believers in Jesus, we have the assurance that God can meet those desires like no one or nothing else can. And the road to their fulfillment runs right through His Word.
When is “not-enough” enough? When the Lord steps in and makes up the difference.
