Shalom ya’ll,
In about 24 hours I will be boarding a plane to Israel…the land where Jesus lived and walked AND the land to which He will return. Here is one of the sights that I will see:
The Garden Tomb where Jesus was buried and from which He rose. Praise You, Lord!! (This picture is from my trip to Israel in 2006).
Yes, I am excited to be back in the land, walking where Jesus walked and seeing so many places that the Bible talks about. I would ask you to pray for our group (approx 25 from our town and church) about a few things:
- Good health
- Safe travel
- Strength and rest on the flights (long flights – abt. 12 – 13 hours each way) and in Israel
- Our families back home in the US (my man will be holding the fort down here at home)
- That we would be salt and light in a place that desperately needs to know Jesus. This is a pleasure trip, but as Christians, we are always to be His witnesses
- That our luggage will arrive when we do
- That we will live in the moment; experiencing and learning all the things that God has for us in that land
I will be posting pictures and ponderings when I return, but will have limited internet access while in the Land. So, if you leave a comment here and you don’t see it appear immediately, don’t lose heart. My friend, Cindy will be moderating my comments while I am away, but I don’t want to work her to death.
Ok, now to Challenge 2010 and our 21st verse. Here is mine:
