I was in Israel in 2002, so walked the road where 2000 years before people had stood and waved palm leaves and shouted Hosanna for a man riding a donkey.
It seems a lot longer ago, when I was there, and now there is war and destruction there.
The shortest verse in the Bible is 'Jesus Wept' (John 11.35)

It is a sad world. However, in spite of all the grief, I hope you have a good week, Chris.

ReplyDeleteI was in Israel in 1998 where I met my husband who is English and comes from Essex. It was a special time to visit around Easter and I'm glad I went then. So sad the way things are now and it is a very appropriate bible quote.
