Fear Not!: Verses for 2013
http://fear-not-hathan.blogspot.com/2014/01/verses-for-2013.html
Wednesday, January 1, 2014. These are the words that have stuck with me this year; the ones I needed to hear, the ones that taught me, the ones I need to remember. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.". Be still, and know that I am God.". Do not let the foreigner joined to the Lord say,. The Lord will surely separate me from his people';. And do not let the eunuch say,. I am just a dry tree.'. For thus says the Lord:. To the eunuchs who keep my sabbaths,. Picture...

Fear Not!: Praying With and To
http://fear-not-hathan.blogspot.com/2013/03/praying-with-and-to.html
Thursday, March 14, 2013. Praying With and To. A non-Jewish friend once asked me, 'Harold, what do Jews pray for? I answered, 'Jewish prayer is less a matter of praying for. And more a matter of praying with. As the theologian Martin Buber put it, when we pray, we don't ask God for anything. We ask God for God. We invite God into our lives, so that the actions we take will be guided by a sense of God's presence.". From Conquering Fear: Living Boldly in an Uncertain World. By Harold S. Kushner.

Fear Not!: Fear Not
http://fear-not-hathan.blogspot.com/2013/03/fear-not.html
Saturday, March 16, 2013. אַל־תִּירָא. I've been thinking about this a lot lately as I deal with anxiety that causes me to start hyperventilating in department stores. I think about the fear of Abraham, leaving home, of Moses speaking to. Pharaoh , of Joshua, who takes over the leadership of all Israel (and is told to "fear not" four times in his first encounter with God). These all seem like. You who live in the shelter of the Most High,. Who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,. Or the arrow that flies...

Fear Not!: April 2012
http://fear-not-hathan.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 22, 2012. Is It All Coming Together? This is just a quick post, because tonight at church I felt like something was slipping through me, and I want to remember it. I've had a couple of moments in the past few days that have centered around kids, and that pulled something inside me that I can't ignore. Answered, "sing a song. Stomp your feet. Read a book. Sometimes when I think no one loves me, I do one of those." I almost started crying, partly because I felt what Brian felt...My brain work...

Fear Not!: June 2013
http://fear-not-hathan.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 24, 2013. Spring Semester: A Summary. That's it. That's the summary. No, okay, I'll go into a little bit more detail. But I think it's telling that it's taken me a month since classes got out to be able to write this post. So here I am on the other side of the semester, looking back triumphantly (and with relief) and what I've accomplished so far. Let's start with classes:. Gospel and Epistles of John. How do we deal with interpretations that see Christ in what are essentially Jewish texts?

Fear Not!: December 2011
http://fear-not-hathan.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 7, 2011. Bring Me Back: Part 1. I've been thinking a lot lately about the things that have brought me back to faith. It seems strange to say "things," because more than anything else it's the people that roped me back in after I gave up on God when I was about ten years old, but in the quiet moments when I felt most alone there were always voices calling me back. Voices that didn't come from corporeal people in my life, but instead from books and music. We shan't meet you. I am,' said...

Sunday, January 15, 2012. Will You Come And Follow Me (The Summons). John Bell (1949- ) and Graham Maule (1958- ). Will you come and follow me,. If I but call your name? Will you go where you don't know. And never be the same? Will you let my love be shown,. Will you let my name be known,. Will you let my life be grown. In you and you in me? Will you leave your self behind. If I but call your name? Will you care for cruel and kind. And never be the same? Will you risk the hostile stare. Another Song Of T...
