Thought for Today: Friday June 27
Sometimes, we do not know why YHVH allow bad things to happen to us. Even then however, YHVH can use them to teach us and make us into better people. Disappointments and tragedies for example, can teach us to turn in trust to Him for the hope and comfort we need. These experiences can also teach us patience, and make us more sensitive to other who are suffering. Are you going through a difficult time today? Ask YHVH to use it to increase your faith and make you more like our Moshiach.

My latest blog digs into the Anti-Jewish sentiment and delivers a few of my own: https://jbschirtzinger.beitesh....elpublications.org/2
We honor the memory of those touched by the Shoa (Holocaust) because it is the right thing to do - for the Jews who perished, for the Jews who survived, for the Christians and others who helped them, and for our children who need to know what happened so they can build a future in which such things remain a memory.

Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist, and faithfulness the belt of his loins.
Isaiah 11:5
#yeshua was righteous inside and out, totally blameless--it wasn't just a garment he put on in public and tossed aside in private--but the Jewish leadership of the first century didn't know what righteousness looked like and they rejected him like the patriarchs did Joseph. Later Christians dressed him up in foreign, pagan trappings--also just like Joseph--and most of his Jewish brothers can't see his Jewish identity anymore.
