While filling up my car a driver on the other side of the pump was also
filling his car. When he turned and looked at me I literally gasped. If I
had not known Ted Kennedy is dead I would have been sure he was out touring
central Massachusetts. If Senator Kennedy had become president they really
could have used this man as a double. He even had that very pronounced
Bostonian accent. It always takes my breath away for a moment when I see a
very close look-alike.

Many years ago I thought I saw my uncle at a Pennsylvania Turnpike rest
stop. When I mentioned it my Dad, his brother, my Dad asked, "Why didn't
you talk to him?" Well, I explained, the woman with him wasn't my aunt, so
I knew it wasn't him. My Dad's response was, "All the more reason to think
it was him."

I have always thought how incredibly marvelous it would be if I would be
taken as a double for Jesus. Since my Arian features would most likely not
be close to Jesus' Semitic features, it would have to be related to
mannerisms and behaviors. Acts 4:13 says, "When they saw the boldness of
Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men,
they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with
Jesus." One cannot spend time with Jesus without being changed. It's a
basic fact of life. Paul referred to it as having the mind of Jesus in us.
What an amazing goal, to think His thoughts and to have His ideas.
