✩✩VIRGO (VIRGIN)✩✩

This  picture depicts a virgin holding a branch in her right hand and ears of corn in her left


Corresponds with Tribe of Zebulun
Hebrew - mah-ZAHL-be-too-la - meaning virgin

The virgin is the beginning of all prophecy. She represents the promise of salvation and the defeat of evil. 
"And I will cause hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head, and you will strike his heel." Genesis 3:15
The Hebrew meaning, as stated above means virgin. The Latin word is virgo which also means virgin. It also corresponds with the Latin word virga, meaning branch. The Bible has much to say about Jesus being "The Branch." 
"Out of the stump of David's family will grow a shoot - yes, a new Branch bearing fruit from the old root." Isaiah 11:1
"But in that day, the branch of the Lord will be beautifu and glorious; the fruit of the land will be the pride and glory of all who survive in Israel." Isaiah 4:2
"...You are symbols of things to come. Soon I am going to bring my servant, the Branch." Zechariah 3:8
 "Tell him, 'This is what the Lord of Heaven's Armies says; Here is the man called the Branch. He will branch out from where he is and build the Temple of the Lord.'" Zechariah 6:12
"'For the time is coming,' says the Lord, 'when I will raise up a righteous descendant from King David's line. He will be a King who rules with wisdom. He will do what is just and right throughout the land.'" Jeremiah 23:5
 This constellation announces a virgin bringing forth the incarnation of God in the Messiah. He will be the branch - the tree of life who will proclaim, "I am the vine. You are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing." John 15:5

Once upon a time on April 2, 2022, the first track meet in Milton Freewater, OR wrapped up. I thanked my kid's coach for all her time and effort. I told her I really appreciated it.  Her response, on the other hand, is something that took me by surprise.  Not, "Thank you!"  Not, "No problem."  Not, "I'm so glad you guys could make it."  Nope. It was more like, "I'm so glad Rasean is on the team. He's a real inspiration to everyone, especially the other boys."  I thanked her and went on my way like we'd just exchanged pleasantries. But something about the way she said it made me believe she really meant it -- like really meant it. As volunteers rolled up flags and posted finals scores I walked away from her to the Honey Bucket. Why was I so in awe at her response??  Once in the Honey Bucket, it became a time capsule. Suddenly I was transported to the years and decades I'd safely tucked in the back of my mind.  There she wa

Equal Joy This is our eldest son, Isaiah . His name means " YAHWEH is salvation ". It's been his name since before we were married. It's just him. Our hope is it completely fulfills who he is as he continues his journey identifying with whose he is. He, and his brother, our truly our pride and joy as I'm sure any parent can relate. Basketball and golf are two words that can get Isaiah's attention at any given moment. He's mostly likely found either at the gym or on the course working hard to perfect his games. Yesterday was a big day for him. He golfed a 40 for the first time on the back nine. He was so excited. That was only the beginning. One of those shots was a chip in for birdie from 30 yards. My heart burst with excitement for him as I was able to see his hard work paying off right before my eyes. But it gets better! After carefully being measured by the clubhouse staff, he discovered someone had donated a set of irons to him that fit per
