Was Jesus White?

A friend of mine seems to feel that pictures depicting Christ as a white person is bad. 

Honestly, I think God is so great He would come to any single person in a manner that would make them the most comfortable. Jesus came into this world into a country where skin was darker.

I think it would be silly to assume though that God would not come in any color He so chose to appear in. I imagine He would be an ocean to sooth the sad, or a sunset to enthuse the romantic. 

In fact as an artist honestly how could I not image Him in everything around us. Look at the light that sheds upon a mountain and glows. See the sun on a blade of grass. Look at the tiny vines in a leaf just dropped from a tree. Watch the wind shuffle the flowers in a field.

Feel the waves slapping the shore and you tell me God is not everywhere. 

See a child born into this world and tell me, God IS everywhere. 

Is God white? Is Jesus white?  

I don't care what color Jesus is, most likely He is every color or any color you need to see. 

Be blessed.
