So we all go back to someone of Jewish descent because Adam and Eve were the first two people on this earth and they were Jewish. So somewhere in our past we all come from Jewish ancestry. My grandmother is into genealogy and has researched one side of her family back to bible days and although she is not able to prove it she thinks someone pretty interesting is related to us. I'm not going to say who it is right now because I'm waiting for my grandmother to send me what she has so I can do my own digging and maybe find out for sure. But also on my dad's side I think there is more Jewish in me than I first thought. I have to do some research into that as well, but some of the American Indians were originally Jewish. And my dad has a lot of Indian in him. And some of the people that he's related to makes me wonder if they were of Jewish descent. I don't know why but the last few months I have become more obsessed with the Jewish religion, way of life, and who I am related to that was Jewish.
I don't know what it is but finding out who I am related to has become important to me. And since the Jews are God's chosen people it is even more important to me to find out if they are Jewish. Maybe I've lost it, I don't know. All I know is something inside me is craving to find out, needing to know, needing answers to my past and why I am the way that I am. If heritage has something to do with shaping you, I want to know if it's true and how much Jewish I have in me. That would be something far beyond words could say, how proud it would be to be Jewish.

Jewish and Christian Prayers
Most people may wonder why I'm so interested in Judaism when I'm a Christian. It's very simple really as a Christian I believe Christianity was founded on Judaism I believe that Christ came to fulfill the law and the prophecies that the prophets had prophesied about. Jesus Christ is a Christians Savior but what most people may forget is He was a Jew. Because the Jews are God's chosen people. So naturally I am wondering what Judaism teaches and what they believe and what things they hold sacred. So, I came up with two prayers one is for Christians and the other for Jews, since Jews don't believe in Jesus, unless they are messianic Jews.
Christian Prayer:
Jesus thank you for dying for us to wash away our sins when we come to you and ask forgiveness. Thank you for being God and saving our souls and healing our bodies. Lord please set your holy angels around us and keep us safe from harm and let no evil of flesh or of spirit come against us. Let us live in your spirit and keep your commandments in Jesus name I pray amen.
Jewish Prayer:
God above please hear our cry. Watch over us, lead and guide us throughout our lives. Help us to always be safe from harm and set your holy angeles around us at night. Keep us safe from any harm of flesh or of spirit and let goodness live in us always. Keep those who would wish us harm away from us and let your holy protection be upon us. Lead us throughout our lives into your truth. And let Israel prosper for all time. And may the God of Israel reign forevermore and throughout all time. Let the Jewish people prosper, let God reign, and may the God of Israel be upon us tonight. In the name of the God of Israel amen.
