Rain Drops
The Eternal Creator is beyond our ability to comprehend Him. He is infinite and we are so finite and yet we do our best to describe Him using human terminology; He is the source of all that is created and is above and beyond His Creation. All we have at our disposal is the creation …
The Source
This blog was inspired by Rabbi Lazer Brody’s Cd, Dollars and Sense. Even though the Cd is directed to a Jewish audience, I was instructed that non-Jews have to do some editing to apply Jewish resources to our lives.

Lost & Found
