At first sight, Miriam shares her joy . . . I loved Yeshua so much I cried. He was mine. He came from God, and he was mine. I studied his fingernails, each one so tiny and delicate. I marveled at his eyelashes, so beautiful against his face. His nose, his chin, everything about him…
Read moreWhere is the world heading? We need to look back to history, precisely Jewish history, to understand and see what is in front of us .
