Talmidim (The Servants)
[Ezekiel 36:26-28] - I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you. I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put My spirit in you and move you to follow My decrees and be careful to keep My laws. You will live in the land I gave to your forefathers. You will be my people and I will be your God.
And through all of this, there is nothing,...

Despair
This was written under a year ago. To think of how much change and growth that has occurred is overwhelming.

Tom Hanks, Capt. Miller, whispers to Matt Damon, Private Ryan, “earn this. Earn it.” Then the ending goes on to show Private Ryan as an older gentleman, saluting the grave of Capt....
The 'Science' of 'Faith'

Some say ‘faith’ is preposterous because it involves something that can’t necessarily be proven while believing that science is the answer to everything. To what extent do things have to be...
