Is Jesus Mexican?

Been thinking today what nationality Jesus is. When we enter the gates will he say, ” bienvenidos? or “come on in ya”ll.  Its funny but we all filter everything through race, culture and nationality. We are so racist and we don’t even know it. The things we say, the jokes we make, the actions that come out not wanting too. That’s crazy! Last Sunday’s sermon was awesome and I gotta say Travis is the first dude(pastor) whom I have met that could be mexican, puerto rican, cuban, african american, jamaican all in one day. Thats cool. I try my best to be who I am no matter what. Yeah I am proud of my heritage but in the end I am every culture, race and nationality.  I think too many people play the card but ain’t real. We joke to hide the insecurity, to be the fake samaritan, and be the blond shephard. Lets keep it real with each other. Gonna step on some toes now!! But seriously we have been called to be more than this. You are all my brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles, friends and aquaintances. In my eyes we are all the same, just different seasonings. LOL. Until we grasp that virtue, this world will be the same. History will repeat itself again and again. And Christ won’t return for his church quite yet. So next time you wanna brush someone off because of where they come from, think, do and treat them as Jesus would. That can probably be the first step in making Miami a better place, don’t you think? Just random thoughts. Good night Miami.

1peter 2:11 says that we are strangers and aliens in this world…hmmm

Here it is…

By this summer my arm will be sporting this work of art. Its meaning? The Ocean represents being in foreign territory  and the ups and downs of life, the waves represent my new home Miami, the person in the water represents God, the boat he holds is my destiny, the sound of the waves is what I hear everynight and what led me here, the Koi fish represent Reina, myself and Diego…

“On his robe and thigh was written this title: King of kings and Lord of lords.” – Revelation 19:16…”thanks Trav
