WEDNESDAY 299 days Swords of Iron War.

International Friends

 Nahariya, Israel.

    (Isaiah 8: 11-13)

    For the Lord spoke thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying:

Do not say, ‘A conspiracy,’ Concerning all that these people call a conspiracy, Nor be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled.
The
Lord of hosts, Him you shall hallow;
Let Him be your fear, And let Him be your dread.

I don't recall ever reading this before. It is as if God is putting in front of me the verses that are needed now.

Another month is ending today. Almost 10 months since October 7th 2023, Holocaust.

It is hard to understand how Israel went through the war for such a long time and now Hezbollah added to the horrors the slaughter of the 15 (12 children) in Majdal Sham. Friends that visited us yesterday passed by the village on their way telling us that black flags were flying everywhere and the people all wore black clothes. Different communities have different behaviour patterns but the grief is just as deep. Israel as a whole is in mourning. The shock and trauma are now 3-4 generations deep.

Two leaders of Hezbollah are dead. Israel attacked after the murders in Madjal Sham. Our prayers that God will cut the head of the snake have been answered. We need more of these heads to die. Meanwhile, Hezbollah is in 3 days of mourning and our sky is very quiet all day and into the night.

Waiting for the next step of God.
