Freedom Christian Counselling

This week’s Torah readings, “Shemot” (“Names”), center on the beginnings of Israel’s journey from oppression to freedom, as God’s faithfulness to His covenant begins to unfold in powerful ways.

The readings remind us of God’s unwavering presence in times of suffering and His ability to raise up leaders, like Moses, to guide His people toward redemption.

Through these passages, we see the call to trust in God’s promises even when circumstances seem bleak, and the assurance that His purposes are always at work.

They encourage us to reflect on how God might be calling us to step into His plans with faith and courage.

How might you respond to His call this week?

This week’s Torah readings, “VaYechi” (“And He Lived”), invite us to reflect on the profound themes of legacy, faith, and hope that transcends generations.

Jacob’s final blessings over his family remind us of the sacred responsibility we have to speak life and purpose into those who come after us.

David’s charge to Solomon encourages steadfastness in walking with God, while 1 Peter draws our hearts to the living hope we hold in Christ, a hope that sustains us through every trial.

As we consider these passages, we are prompted to ask: How are we living out our faith today in a way that leaves a lasting mark of love, truth, and hope for those who follow

A new year doesn’t require a new version of you.

It can simply be an invitation to pause, take stock, and be honest about how you’re really going, without pressure, comparison, or having it all together.

This season is allowed to be gentle.

Growth doesn’t have to be loud.

Healing doesn’t have to be rushed.

You’re not behind.

May this year be one where you offer yourself the same care and grace you so freely give others 🤍

This week’s readings beautifully weave together themes of reconciliation, unity, and the faithfulness of God’s plan. They remind us of the power of humility and forgiveness to heal even the deepest wounds, the promise of restoration as God draws His people together, and the call to live with compassion and love as we follow His ways.

These stories speak to the heart, showing us that even in our brokenness, God is working to bring peace, hope, and redemption.

May we draw near to Him this week, trusting His perfect timing and embracing His call to walk in faith, humility, and grace.

This week’s Torah portion, Miketz (“At the End of”), reminds us that God is faithful in the waiting and intentional in the timing of our lives. What feels delayed, hidden, or forgotten is never wasted in His hands. God works quietly behind the scenes, bringing things to completion at just the right moment.

Miketz speaks to the seasons when life turns unexpectedly, when long periods of waiting give way to sudden change. It reminds us that God’s purposes are not rushed, yet they are never late. In the moments we least expect it, He can lift us from obscurity into clarity, from uncertainty into direction, from waiting into fulfilment.

This portion invites us to trust God’s wisdom over our own understanding. True insight, strength, and leadership flow not from human striving, but from reliance on God’s Spirit. When we lean into His presence rather than our own ability, His power is revealed in quiet, steady ways that transform both hearts and circumstances.

As you reflect on Miketz this week, may you be encouraged to trust God with the timing of your life. If you are in a season of waiting, know that He is still at work. Stay faithful, stay humble, and remain open for what God has been preparing in the hidden places will be revealed in its time.

This week’s Torah portion, VaYeshev, reminds us that God is at work even when life feels unfair, confusing, or deeply painful.

Joseph’s story unfolds through betrayal, loss, and injustice, yet none of it is wasted. What looks like interruption is often preparation.

Through these readings, we are invited to live with integrity, to pursue justice, and to trust that God dwells with us in the midst of uncertainty. Even in the waiting, even in the hardship, His presence remains steady and sure.

If you are walking through a season that feels unsettled, take heart: you are not alone. God is with you, and His purposes are still unfolding. What feels hidden today may yet become the very place of restoration, hope, and redemption.

This week’s Torah portion, VaYishlach (“And He Sent”), reminds us of God’s steady guidance, His covenant faithfulness, and the importance of trusting Him through every part of our journey.

Just as Jacob stepped forward with uncertainty, wrestling with fear yet holding onto God’s promise, we too are sent into seasons that stretch and shape us. We face challenges, decisions, and moments where we must choose faith over fear. Yet even in the unknown, we are never alone — God equips us with strength, surrounds us, and leads us with His sovereign hand.

VaYishlach invites us to trust that the places God sends us are not without purpose. He equips us for what we face, surrounds us with support, and leads us with a faithful hand that never wavers.

As you reflect this week, may you be encouraged to walk with confidence, knowing you are sent intentionally, guided lovingly, and held by a God who is with you in every step of your journey

Blessings on your journey this week 💛
