Still Small Voice

Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.     Psalm 85:10

There are a few times in life when heaven seems to touch the earth, and recently Jay and I and my nephew Paul felt this favor while filming TV programs up in the Galilee. For a couple of days we were like kids out of school. There is just something about Galilee. Here Jesus spent the greatest time of His ministry and here he was heard gladly. In his life time Israeli historians say that out of the 2 million Jews living here at the time under Roman rule, 500,000 followed the Rabbi.

Still Small Voice …

Shalom dear friends;          Nisan 5769,  April 2009

Tell me, is there anything like good news from a far country? Your letters are treasures and I take time to devour each one. You write as though I am your family, well, I am. Thank you for loving kindness poured out.  Lets take a moment to think of the momentous time of year we are approaching.  I hope what follows sheds light on your own private time of worship during Passover and Easter.

The Hebrew Month of Nisan

Nisan  (April) opens for us a portal to gaze at spiritual greatness, to see God’s hand at work in human affairs, especially in human history. It gives us a sense of how God metes out justice in this world to nations and individuals. Whether we see it or not, the divine principle of ‘justice’ is always present and working.

New website 2009

Published by Meridel Rawlings

A fresh new design for Still Small Voice (SSV) web site has been in development for the last 6 months. We have tried hard to improve the image and user friendliness of all the communications coming to you from SSV. The logo is a tree with Hebrew letters and a dove which symbolizes “Let his (or her) soul be bound up in the bond of eternal life”. The landscape photography by Chris Rawlings reflects this theme very well and gives a fresh and relaxed look to the web site and e-newsletter.

We are pleased to announce the launch of the new web site in mid April 2009, which will highlight more up to date news on Meridel Rawlings with personal video clips and current news. Chris Rawlings has developed a content management system to help Meridel update the web site on a monthly basis to keep her friends and supporters informed and educated about current events in Israel.

There is a newsletter section with current and archived news for those interested. Also, we would love to hear from you on the website guest book. You can also fill out the “Contact Form” form if you would like to receive a redesigned Still Small Voice e-newsletter or information on Meridel Rawlings next Seminars. If you are signed up on the current email list you will be receiving the new e-newsletter by email.

Sincerely,

Meridel Rawlings
