1. Waves of hope - Even without setting foot in Israel, I feel more connected to it than ever HaGal Sheli isn’t just about surfing. It’s a nonprofit that uses the ocean as a space for healing and growth. With Jewish teens from across San Diego, we meet weekly to surf, to talk, to process. Out there in the water, I’ve faced more than waves – I’ve faced fear, frustration, and the heavy feeling of not belonging. In a time when antisemitism is rising, those feelings are sharper than ever.
He alone stretches out the heavens and treads on the waves of the sea. He is the Maker of the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the constellations of the south. He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. Job 9:8 - 10
When the queen of Sheba saw the wisdom of Solomon, as well as the palace he had built, the food on his table, the seating of his officials, the attending servants in their robes, the cupbearers in their robes and the burnt offerings he made at the temple of the LORD, she was overwhelmed. She said to the king, "The report I heard in my own country about your achievements and your wisdom is true. But I did not believe what they said until I came and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, not even half the greatness of your wisdom was told me; you have far exceeded the report I heard. 2 Chronicles 9:3 - 6
5. Too busy studying Talmud to think about God Prompting Jewish students to think about God was the thought of one Jewish educational organization which set out to question Jewish middle and high school students as to how much time they devoted each day to thinking and talking about God.

But if I say, "I will not mention His word or speak anymore in His name," His word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot. Jeremiah 20:9
To console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified. Isaiah 61:3
