Ski Slopes Here We Come!

Can't wait for next weekend! Planning to meet up with some friends for a fun weekend of skiing! It's been years so I hope I don't break anything. I'll take pics if I have the opportunity but no promises. In the meantime, we'll enjoy watching the fun in Vancouver! Loving the Olympics!!!

Healing Scriptures

Attached is a website with inspiring scriptures for healing. My family has been through a lot lately and scriptures like these have given much support. Time and time again I have seen God's healing power. These are not experiences that I ever wish to repeat but I am grateful for them as they have brought me and my family closer to our heavenly father. There is nothing he can not do! Praise the Lord!!!

The History of Ethiopia, Abyssinia & The Rulers

The Ethiopian kingdom was founded (10th cent. B.C.) by Solomon's first son, Menelik I, whom the queen of Sheba is supposed to have borne. However, the first kingdom for which there is documentary evidence is that of Aksum (Axum), a kingdom which probably emerged in the 2d cent. A.D., thus making Ethiopia the oldest independent country in Africa and one of the most ancient in the world. Immigrants (mainly traders) from S Arabia who had been settling in N Ethiopia since about 500 B.C. influenced the economy and culture of Ethiopia. Aksum controlled much of the Red Sea coast and had links with the Mediterranean world.

Ethiopic

Ethiopia has its own ancient calendar. According to the beliefs of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, God created the world 5500 years before the birth of Christ. It is 1994 years since Jesus was born. Based on this timeline, we are in the year 7494 of the eighth millennium (or smnTow vh). These are referred to as Amete Alem (]MT ]Lm) in Amharic or "the years of the world". Era of the world dates from 5493 Ethiopian B.C.
Ethiopic is not the only calendar in Ethiopia either. The works of Enoch (hnk) had been in Ethiopia and Egypt before the times of Moses and on through the times of King Solomon and Queen of Sheba. As has been the case for Israel, Egypt and Ethiopia have had important roles in Biblical History. An Enochian year is completed in 364 days, Enoch 82:4-7 and Jubilees 6:23-28. More precisely, a 365-day-solar-year and the 365-year-solar-cycle appear as a 365-days-and-years single term. From the three books of Enoch, a curious 364-day length of calendar year lends new insight by reserving the last day of the solar year. Ethiopians followed the Old Testament before the introduction of Christianity (1 Kings 10:1-9).
