I am going to try something new. Rather than write the posts in Word, then edit, then post (and edit some more) I am going to try to journal this amazing journey to the land of Messiah. So here we are at Ft Lauderdale airport waiting for the first leg of our journey to begin. […]
A Promise You Can Count On
When I was 15 years old, Yeshua came into my room. Does that sound crazy? Maybe. But it’s true. I was a 2-year-old believer, having accepted Yeshua as my Savior in a Charismatic Catholic Church. One night in June I woke to a booming sound of men’s voices, chanting something that I could not make out. […]
Do you want to know the secret for having a happy life?
I came across this article on VirtualJerusalem.com and had to share it. Great lesson here. Yom Kippur and the 10th Commandment Do you want to know the secret for having a happy life?

Putting It in Perspective
There has been so much talk about the blood moons and the Feasts of the Lord. One the one hand, people becoming more aware of God’s calendar is a good thing. On the other hand, things have gotten way out control. We are seeking signs instead of the Lord of the Universe. Avner Bosky wrote […]

My heart is breaking. Recently I was involved in conversations in the blogosphere regarding Torah and its relevance to Gentiles. Many said it has little to no bearing on us. Several times I shared this with my rabbi at Torah study and was shored in my belief that yes, there is one Torah for all […]
Treasures in the Heart
Did you ever spend time with a loved one and before it’s time to depart, you just can’t help but talking about all you’d done together? I have. When my oldest grandson was a toddler I used to ‘kidnap’ him on the weekends. We’d do all sorts of little things together. The simple things in […]
Repair, Rebuild, Restore
Did you ever have the Word of God jump off the page, land on your face and refuse to let go? That’s what happened to me over six years ago. I was reading through Isaiah 61 when all of a sudden verse 4 flew off the page, grabbed my face, and refused to let go. […]

Time to Stop Talking and Start Doing!
This morning I am setting aside discussions about our journey to our Jewish Messiah and asking all of us to stop talking and start doing. Doing what? Being a disciple. Doing the work of the Kingdom. This first starts with having a heart after God’s own heart. When Yeshua saw the suffering his heart broke […]
