What speaks of YHVH’s glory more than flowers? <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Yeshua thought so. He declared that all the glory of Solomon’s kingdom wasn’t even equal to that of a common lily.<\/p>\n

Amazing! Men get all excited over their own creations: palaces, works of art, and great human accomplishments, yet we often overlooks the flowers. Why? Because flowers\u00a0take the glory away from men and point it to Elohim where it all belongs.<\/p>\n

That’s why I\u00a0put the box of matzah in a planter full of pansies.<\/p>\n

YHVH’s feasts, like the flowers, point to YHVH Elohim. The unleavened bread points to Yeshua, the Living Torah-Bread of Life who is the Creator of all including the flowers.<\/p>\n

It all comes back full circle and it all fits together in my way of thinking like a puzzle making a beautiful picture. Matzot\u2014flowers\u2014Yeshua\u2014the Torah\u2014the Bread of Life\u2014 the Creator\u2014the biblical feasts\u2014the glorious beauty of Elohim.<\/p>\n

Ponder, reflect, meditate, get in the river of life and enjoy!<\/p>\n
