the real Y'shua

A glorious day here, blue sky and no clouds. How different from yesterday, when nit rained constantly. A picture perhaps of life? The sun will eventually come through, no matter how bad the storm is. Perhaps I should have been a philosopher, but I think too much. Getting along with some mind stuff, I am thinking more clearly at the moment, and gearing up for the summer, when I hope to spend a lot of time fishing and thinking, with some writing thrown in.
Just went to Wisconsin for the weekend, near the south part of Lake Superior, a beautiful wild place, but out of the way somewhat. Not sure if I could cope with driving 30 miles to get a loaf or a bottle of milk.
I'm pretty excited about exploring the Jewish heritage of Christianity, it seems to have been erased from most people's screens. When you start reading the Bible in Hebrew it really jumps out how Jewish the faith is. Of course Jesus, or Y'shua to give Him His Hebrew title, was a Jew, as was every author of every book in the Bible. But, Y'shua is universal, being Savior to the whole world. However, when you do some research on the Jewish customs, and read what the authors, and the Author said in these Bible books, it's astonishing how much we've lost by claiming Jesus as our white, middle class Savior, when He lived as a Jewish blue collar worker.
