I don’t know yet if I will post this, but I have been fighting the urge to write something of this nature for quite some time, and have finally given in at least to write it. It is currently July 30. If the post date is later than that, that’s how long it took meContinue reading “Shofar so good….”

They Call Me “Daniel-son”
I amuse myself. I always have. As the youngest of five, I suppose at times I had to, especially when all my siblings entered their ‘teens’ and I was still a single-digit dingo. I spent a lot of time ‘in my head’ when I was a kid. I still remember a song I made upContinue reading “They Call Me “Daniel-son””
A Blast of Honey!
Today is the third day into the season of “Teshuva”, a time of self-examination and turning toward the Creator and His Ways, in preparation for ‘The Judgment of Rosh Hashana’, and the “Terrible Days” leading up to Yom Kippur. This year, we expect the ‘khodesh’ to be sighted on 09/11 before sundown, but it couldContinue reading “A Blast of Honey!”
Turn Around!
The season of Teshuva begins tonight at sundown, if the khodesh is seen. It is the season of repentance, in preparing for the Judgments of Yom Teru’ah [Rosh Hashanah] and Yom Kippur. This season also prepares one for the sanctity of those annual days. As we are indeed in the “Akharit HaYamim,” the Last Days, weContinue reading “Turn Around!”
Life’s Happy Door – Part 2
Many will not appreciate what I am about to write. But, there is encoded into the Hebrew scriptures multiple layers of interpretation. Many do not accept that, errantly thinking that everything the Jewish people believe is wrong. Yeshua told a young Jewish Rabbi, “You are not far from the Kingdom of Elohim,” when he hadContinue reading “Life’s Happy Door – Part 2”
F F F foolin’ yourself
It never ceases to amaze me how deceitful people are. But, I’m not talking about overt liars, but about people who lie to themselves, deceive themselves. I am starting to see that this is very close to the root of all sin and all conflict! Mind you, I came from a very similar background asContinue reading “F F F foolin’ yourself”
Careful! You’ll fall!
Balance: that’s what “justice” is. That’s why scales are used to represent the ‘justice system’ in many countries. In the Kingdom of G-d, it is no different. One side of the scale is for mercy, the other side is for judgment. Being a Messianic Jew, we have found that many of those who claim toContinue reading “Careful! You’ll fall!”
Life’s Happy Door – Part 1
“I will open a door for you that no man can shut.” The title is not going to appear to match the content of this article, but the NEXT article will complete the sequence, and you’ll understand why. The below is actually a post on fb that was presented as a memory today. And itContinue reading “Life’s Happy Door – Part 1”
I have a String Theory too!
“Thus says יהוה Tzeva’ot, ‘In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the kanaf of him that is a Yehudi, saying, ‘We will go with you, for we have heard that Elohim is with you.’” WhatContinue reading “I have a String Theory too!”
My Rabbi is better than yours!
Our portion this week in the B’sorah [gospel] is Yokhanan 13. This begins the telling of the Pesakh Seder, the last one before Yeshua was executed. This morning, I am conveying something that I’ve always known, but that I saw more vividly this morning in reading. I’m wondering who else has had a “Selah” momentContinue reading “My Rabbi is better than yours!”
