Hey Mr. Stork! WTF?!?

Jan 14, 2009 09:46

So some of you know I'm involved in Jewish Christian Ministry, Messianic worship, studying the Jewish christian Dialogue. Well, after, what, Seven Years of exposure, and 3 years of working in this ministry? I find out something ridiculously crazy last night.

On my mom's side, I have an entire branch that's Jewish.

I have to admit i was utterly and completely shocked. It was like wtf? Are you serious? What is even funnier is that I've chided myself for quite sometime cus there was a time when I was just getting into all of this that I would always lie when I was with orthadox jews telling them that as a fact. Then I turn around and find out that it's true.

Now note, I don't believe there's some special magical, or mystical trait about genetics that makes people holy or anything. Whether or not I have that in my bloodline doesn't make me automatically... whatever. It's just that... well, THE HELL IS THIS?!?!? I'm not upset or angry, it doesn't "give my life more" or less meaning. It's just that... I have my identity already. I understood my place in my ministry. I'm a goy kid who's attracted to this worship not because of heritage, or out of a cultural obligation. It's like the Theory of Relativity before it could be proven. The idea of it so beautiful it HAS to be right. Now my brain has baggage. I already have enough baggage right now with my trying to figure out if I should stay in South FL. I don't need more dang it.

judaism, ministry, mom
