In my life I did not pay much attention to numbers. Maybe I was too preoccupied with other things like 💕 love. Dietrich loves numbers; that is why at home he was doing all the accounting of numbers which were low in all categories. Besides being a theologian, he was an engineer and math teacher.

Numbers speak. In the Bible it is said we should give 10% offering of all our income. With these tithings we help the world around us.

The Israelites walked in the desert for 40 years after those sent to spy out the Promised Land for 40 days gave negative reports and the Israelites complained to God.

Jesus prayed and fasted for 40 days and resisted Satan’s 3 temptations.

Before we receive the blessing in marriage we fast 7 days for purification. When my husband was sick, our daughter Diesa fasted 7 days. Another time she fasted 3 days with her friends, Nurie and Jessa, offering support and fasting with her the last day for healing of my husband.

When my husband passed, I counted the years we were together. it was 40 years! I was satisfied we were together for this amount of time.

One time at the fair there was a numerologist and he started playing and adding the numbers from my name and date of birth. He said when adding the numbers together it was auspicious. I went to visit my friend Tia and the number of her apartment was the same as my date of birth. Because she is of Chinese descent, she trusts numbers and said she picked this number because it was a lucky number. She also makes sure her clients bank number are lucky numbers, because she is a financial advisor.

As for me, I love number 43 and 430. Why? Because somehow these numbers fulfill my life accomplishments!

Most important, one year maybe it was 2020 or 2021, as I was packing to go to my hometown in France a strong voice in my heart mind said I should count numbers until I fulfill 43 couples who are totally dedicated to establishing a heavenly family and 430 couples who were already there as my foundation who rededicated their marriage vows and pledged fidelity to build a new culture of heart and love. In so doing they were terminating the culture of sins and divorce.

One family under God is the new culture! And God loves numbers!
