The Clarion Call: Purpose Over Popularity!
Good Morning World! It is a wasted breath that is blown with every fleeting wind of public opinion. Living for the approval of others is like a life spent waiting for the next current to take us out to sea. One wave may take us a little way out, another will come & wash us right back to the beach. We must know what we believe why we believe it & resolve to stand by that truth. What popularity? What do you believe?
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. Psalm 27:10
And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. Matthew 19:29
I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Psalm 27:13
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Mark 1:15

Miriam's Passing (1274 BCE) Less
Miriam, the sister of Moses, passed away at the age of 126 on the 10th of Nissan of the year 2487 from creation (1274 BCE) -- 39 years after the Exodus and exactly one year before the Children of Israel entered the Holy Land. It is in deference to her passing that the "Great Shabbat" is commemorated on the Shabbat before Passover rather than the calendar date of the miracle's occurence, Nissan 10.

Israelites Cross Jordan (1273 BCE) Less
Three days after the two spies dispatched by Joshua scouted the city of Jericho (see entry for "Nissan 7" above), the children of Israel were ready to enter the land promised by G-d to their ancestors as their eternal heritage. As they approached the Jordan with the Holy Ark carried by the Kohanim (priests) in their lead, the river parted for them, as the waters of the Red Sea had split when their fathers and mothers marched out of Egypt 40 years earlier. (Joshua 4)
