When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lᴏʀᴅ appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless” (Genesis 17:1).
The names of God often point us to the ways He relates to His people. The name “God Almighty” in the Old Testament is a translation of the two Hebrew words El and Shaddai. El means “all-powerful.” Shaddai means “breast.” When these two words are combined, they mean “He is the all-powerful One who satisfies, nourishes, and sustains us.”

I have been working at Harvest House for 13 years in August. As the Accountant at HH, I produce reporting as well as the monthly financial statements for the company. My favorite thing about working at HH is the sense of family here. There are times of joy, times of sorrow, as well as, times of chaos, which are all things we as individuals deal with in our own immediate families. The people I work with here are one of the other things I enjoy about HH. This company is full of compassionate, caring, and understanding individuals which today is sometimes hard to come by in the working world. Harvest House is an enjoyable place to be each day. People might be surprised to know that I have known my husband since grade school. We attended the same grade school, he then moved around with his family while his father worked, and came back to attend part of middle school and all of high school here in Eugene. We began our relationship in 2001 and we have now been married 10 years this August and have 3 wonderful children.
