The celebrated holiday of Rosh Hashanah has just passed. Tradition, therefore, says it is time for a new beginning.
Of course, for those like myself who believe that Jesus (Yeshua) is the Messiah of the Jews, every day should be considered as special (Psalm 118:24). Yet, I think it is okay to honor certain days of the year and to commemorate various historical events. But I am not required to keep the Old Testament laws because the Lord Jesus abolished these ordinances by His death on the cross.
For now, however, I simply wish to rejoice in the goodness of God. And as the days pass, my prayer is that I may become more submitted to the Lord than ever before. Amen!
