The View at the Veil
"Warning! Do Not Enter!" There was no such sign on the veil, but God had given His instructions. The priests knew that they were not to enter beyond the veil into the Holy of Holies, the very presence of God. Only the high priest was allowed to do so, and then just once a year.
The veil divided the two rooms inside the tabernacle. The first room, called the Holy Place, contained the three pieces of furniture discussed in the previous chapters. The other room was called the "Holiest of All," or "the Holy of Holies." Inside the Holy of Holies was kept the Ark of the Covenant, above which God said He would dwell and commune with the high priest, who represented His people (Ex. 25:22). In the Holy of Holies, the Shekinah glory was to be seen--the manifest presence of God. The veil hid this sight of God, it was the final step into the presence of God. This is the best part of the Tabernacle and is vital and applies to us today.
A big health tip - Being 85, I am vitally interested in being in good health to be a good servant of God.
I have been getting wobbly, poor balance, not dizzy, and fearful of falling and breaking a hip or what ever which so many older people do.
This tip stopped my wobbliness, improved my balance dramatically. and is so easy to do.
The "unipedal standing balance exercise" as the researchers call it is so simple.
Stand on each leg for one minute with your eyes open three times a day. If you need to, hang onto something so you don't fall.
That's why we make all the fuss on weight-bearing exercise. By Sakamoto's calculations, standing on one foot for a minute would have an effect on bone density equivalent to walking 53 minutes.
Repeating this exercise three times a day would have an effect equivalent to taking three almost hour long walks a day. For older people who are not that mobile, unipedal standing may be an interesting option.
It appears to improve balance enough that it decreases spontaneous falls by about a third. Second, it produces mild strain to the bone, in theory decreasing the chance of fracture if the person does fall.
For people who are too frail for rigorous workouts or even walking, unipedal standing offers an alternative "exercise". Even for those of us who do exercise routinely, a few minutes on one foot may still provide added advantage.
I want and need your input. My thought is to put a brief tip on our webiste each month or send it out like this once a month. PLEASE tell me what you think. Do it or not. ABC Sumner Go to www.sumnerwemp.com all new website.

She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
