When she was 3-5 years old she started having visions from Heaven. In her youth, she convinced her younger brother the quickest way to Heaven was to become a martyr and they ran away from home to the Moores hoping to be beheaded. Their Uncle found them before they left the family estate. Convinced the holy life was the best way, she and her brother vowed to live as hermits on the family estate until they realized they didn’t have enough stones to make a roof. Discouraged, she happened upon her mother’s fashion books and instead gave her life over to fashion, jewelry, and becoming the town gossip. It wasn’t until her mother died and her Father sent her to boarding school at a nearby Convent at the age of 15 that she discovered a holy friendship with a nun who reminded Teresa the worldy things she sought after we’re nothing compared to the treasures of heaven and a holy life. She became a nun at 18 and pursued the path of holiness once more. It wasn’t until she was 39 years old that she began having visions again of Jesus. Her book “Interior Castle” is full of priceless wisdom on the stages our souls go through along our journey with Christ. She helped to found the Discalced Carmelite Order (Barefoot Nuns) and was known for healing the sick among the poor before she died. Her visions were acknowledged post-humorously by the Church and she was made not only a saint but also one of only 4 current female Doctors of the Church. MORAL OF THE STORY: •Children are gifted to reveal heaven. •The world will prey on discouragement and lead you away from your calling. •Godly friendships can literally save you. •It doesn’t matter how old you may get, when you turn back to God he will do amazing things with the time you have left. #LivesofSaints “Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.” 1 COR. 11:1 #ReadThem #BeEncouraged #feastday #TeresaofAvila #saintteresaofavila On the last day of the festival, the Great Day, while Jesus was standing there, he cried out, 'Let anyone who is thirsty come to me, and let the one who believes in me drink‘ (Jn. 7:37-38). • The feast of Tabernacles is the background feature used in John‘s Gospel to highlight claims of Jesus‘ identity. John‘s gospel seeks to proclaim Jesus as the "light of the world‘ and the 'source of living water‘—the Word made flesh. The writer of the gospel seeks to uphold the claim of the Christian community that Jesus is the en-fleshed manifestation of the divine logos described as 'tabernacling‘* among us (Jn. 1:14) by contrasting Jesus with the symbolism of God‘s presence (Shechinah) which was associated with the Temple in Jerusalem. The writer‘s purpose is to show that Jesus is the 'new‘ Temple in and through whom God dwells with people who have faith. The contrast between light and darkness; blindness and vision; is the difference between those who have faith in Jesus and those who do not. • Each time Christians celebrate the Eucharistic is a Sukkot. We eat and drink of the Light of the World who’s dwelling within us makes our own bodies the Tabernacle of God. • Without His Presence we are simple huts made of earthen materials. It’s His glory which makes everything new and perfects in us a sukkah worthy of His dwelling. • *The Greek word translated as ―take up residence‖ or ―dwelled/lived among‖ is σκηνόω and alludes to the tabernacle where the Shechinah, the manifestation of the physical glory of God, resided. Jews, today, continue to celebrate Sukkot, eating and sleeping for eight days in a sukkah, remembering God‘s gracious gifts and rejoicing in the experience of the forgiveness of Yom Kippur, just five days before the beginning of the Festival. • SUKKOT CONTINUES TO BE LIFE-GIVING FOR A FAITHFUL PEOPLE. • #Sukkot #FeastofTabernacles Chag Sameach! It’s the festival of festivals in the Old Testament. A foreshadow of Heavenly life when we shall dwell under the canopy of God and He shall tabernacle with us for all Eternity. Some believe the Wedding Feast of the Lamb will occur on Sukkot when Christ will gather in the fruit of the Land after his return at Rosh Hashanah and will occur outside in the tradition of the booths the people prepare. It is the most festive and joyous 8-day feast the Bible commands to be observed. No matter what occurs, the last gathering will certainly be a cause for a celestial celebration!

What does it really mean to go from Glory to Glory? HINT: It has nothing to do with glitter dust, worship bands or rainbows. READ MORE of my LATEST POST on Sheerah and get ready to digest the true Light of Glory. LINK IN BIO SheerahMinistries.com/posts “God, God, benevolent God, compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in kindness and truth; He preserves kindness for two thousand generations, forgiving iniquity, transgression and sin, and He cleanses.” (Words of the Amidah according to Exodus 34:6-7) On this Yom Kippur, May you always be reminded it is the Compassion of God which grants us salvation not according to His Justice but in measure of His Mercy. Christ is His mercy and the glory of His kingdom, now and forever. As the moon waxes in the sky, we recite a special blessing after nightfall called Kiddush Levanah, "the sanctification of the moon," praising the Creator for His wondrous work we call astronomy. When we bless the moon, we renew our trust that very soon, the light of God's presence will fill all the earth and we will be redeemed from exile. We stand under the open sky, facing east and looking into our prayer books. We begin by reciting the first six verses of Psalm 148, giving praise to God for the moon, sun, stars and heavens, “for He commanded and they were created.” Next, we place our feet together, look at the moon and recite the blessing, “. . . He gave them a set law and time, so that they should not alter their task . . . Blessed are You, Lord, who renews the months.” After lifting our heels three times, we then address the moon, so to speak: “Blessed is your Maker; blessed is He who formed you . . . Just as I leap toward you but cannot touch you, so may all my enemies be unable to touch me harmfully . . .” We emphasize these ideas by repeating this paragraph (and some of the subsequent stanzas) three times. Each time we begin, we lift ourselves to stand on our toes three times. Next we address the deeper significance of the lunar cycle: “David, King of Israel, is living and enduring.” The kingdom of David is compared to the moon. Though it may have lost much of its former radiance, it will be restored to its glory in messianic times. We make a point of wishing peace to those who are peaceful. We turn to three of our fellow congregants and wish them peace, “shalom aleichem,” and they wish us peace in return, “aleichem shalom.” CONTINUE READING IN COMMENTS #yomkippur “Light is sown for the righteous, and for the upright in heart—joy.” Yom Tov, a festive day; for although we stand prepared to be judged in the supernal courtroom for our deeds of the past year, we are confident that God is a merciful judge, and will decree a year of life, health and prosperity for us. Two festive meals are eaten -- one at midday and the other before the fast, which begins at sunset. Yom Kippur ("Day of Atonement"), the holiest day of the year, begins this evening before sunset. During which we abstain from food and drink in fulfillment of the biblical command (Leviticus 16:29). Tonight begins an evening of sincere reflection and repentance before God. Though Jesus pardoned our sins on the cross, we must never neglect to admit our faults before him and ask Him always for His forgiveness. It is pride to think one who has received pardon is incapable of sinning again. Rather we must learn to repeatedly offer ourselves on the altar of humility and confess our sins to Him who is all merciful in His pardoning of them. 📖 The “Al Chet” a liturgical confession of sins is said ten times in the course of the Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) services: For the sin which we have committed before You under duress or willingly, And for the sin which we have committed before You by hard-heartedness. For the sin which we have committed before You inadvertently, And for the sin which we have committed before You with an utterance of the lips. For the sin which we have committed before You with immorality, And for the sin which we have committed before You openly or secretly. For the sin which we have committed before You with knowledge and with deceit, And for the sin which we have committed before You through speech. For the sin which we have committed before You by deceiving a fellowman, And for the sin which we have committed before You by improper thoughts. For the sin which we have committed before You by a gathering of lewdness, And for the sin which we have committed before You by verbal [insincere] confession. For the sin which we have committed before You by disrespect for parents and teachers, CONTINUE READING IN COMMENTS
