Hello Grafted In Readers,
Can you believe that half the month of January is now behind us? Time doesn't speed up but it seems to as we age or remain active. I found a quote in The Guardian digital news service online that is worth some thought:
Let’s all be better, without trying so hard to be perfect
Eva Wiseman
Ms. Wiseman is a columnist who writes in The Guardian lifestyle section. This is but a snippet from a recent essay written by her on making changes each new year.
Since our last visit, I have been busy with writing, playing piano for two local restaurants two evenings a week, and a Sunday brunch, and am now revising the 2017 publication, Waiting For Messiah, available on Smashwords in its original form. The revision will be imagined accounts of people from the Bible time or life waiting for Messiah. I may re-publish this in several months.
My memoir, "Homecoming: A Memoir" is currently on special via a public coupon through March 2019.

In Google type, Homecoming a memoir david c. russell smashwords
and the book title will appear linked as a result.
For health-sake, there is a new study from the British Nutrition Foundation released on January 14, 2019 that recommends portion control and other tips on eating for improved health. Google report british nutrition foundation.
Until our next visit, enjoy a good walk, and kevod Yeheveh: The presence of the Lord sustain you!

Take Your Charge (Acoustic, Kait Lawson)
Hello and Happy 2019 Grafted In Reader,
Why is this blog here?
-BLOG EMPHASIS IS ON ENCOURAGING AND SUPPORTING ONE ANOTHER ON THEIR JOURNEY OF FAITH IN YESHUA OUR MESSIAH, LIGHT OF OUR WORLD, REDEEMER AND CHIEF RABBI. --PROVIDING THE OCCASIONAL VERBAL SIPEYR - SAPHIRE, A PRICELESS TREASURE TO SPUR ONE ON IN THEIR LIFE. -ENCOURAGE DISCOVERY THAT "THERE IS NO FREEDOM WITHOUT THE LEARNING OF THE TORAH."
This first week of the new year may have us thinking about changes we want to make in our life: exercise more, eat less, engage with others, support something, retain health, on and on until ad nauseum.
Personally, I am doing abdominal crunches at least three times a week, eating more fiber content, reading a book a month, honoring commitments to my wife, family and writing forums, and retaining my gigs as a freelance writer and pianist for a couple local restaurants.
One of my email subscriptions is to the newsletter produced by My Jewish Learning. I encourage you to give that website a good look-see if you are a person of faith.
An article there is fitting titled, "How To Find The Right Synagogue for You" It doesn't turn the question around but looks at the issue squarely and fairly.
The first step is to decide what are you seeking in a spiritual community, and what's available that matches your answers?
I like the point: that the synagogue's personality is reflected in the behavior of its clergy and members, ritual styles and services. Furthermore, the reason to attend any community is multi-fold. To pray, be inspired, find counsel, socialize, be educated, commit to some type of social action and help financially support the facility.
As we consider the new year this new month, may we ever know that the unchanging presence of Yehoveh is with us!
