My last night in Israel

Monday, November 27th, 2006

Daniel 2:20,21 “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and might are His. And he changes the times and the seasons: He removes kings and raises up kings: He gives wisdom and knowledge to those who have understanding.” I cannot believe this is my last night in Israel. All my senses […]

I love walking in the sunshine

Psalms 136:1, “Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.” There was something so nice about our Thanksgiving being on Shabbat.  Saturday dawned cool and quiet.  I am always amazed at how things stop and slow down and how quiet it gets on Shabbat—hardly any cars on the […]

I guess I am ready to cook tomorrow

Psalms: 25:20,21 “Keep my soul, and deliver me; Let me not be ashamed, for I put my trust in You. Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for You.” Shabbat Shalom To not be a holiday in Israel, I have been busy. Will and I went to a concert at the Jerusalem Symphony […]

Thanksgiving is coming together

Wednesday, November 22nd, 2006

Matthew 24:7,8,  “For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.  And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.  All these are the beginning of sorrows.” I got to talk a little more to Morris (from Florida) this morning.  His son and daughter live here.  I get the feeling he is […]

Rockets launched at Sderot again

Genesis 50:20, “But as for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.” Joseph could have said to save many people, period. Why does the word “alive” matter? Because I think he was referring to […]

My B&B is a very interesting place

Monday, November 20th, 2006

Proverbs 1:5, “A wise man will hear and increase learning, and a man of understanding will attain wise council.” My B&B is a very interesting place. It is like a mini-drama every day. The cast comes and goes and is so rich in character. They are from all over the world and bring with them […]

If it is so dangerous, why is the real estate so expensive?

Saturday, November 18th, 2006

The Torah reading for this week is: Genesis 23:1 through 25:18, I Kings 1:1-31. Shabbat dinner last night was delightful. Dinner was scheduled for 8pm but we ate at 9pm. We just laughed and called it Israeli dinner time. It was good food and good fellowship. There were six of us—one from Germany, Will and […]

You have not lived until you have bowled in Jerusalem

Friday, November 17th, 2006

Friday’s weather could not have been more perfect! Not a cloud in sight, with temperatures about 70. It was a great day to walk around and just be outdoors. Will and I walked to Ben Yehuda Street. It was so crowded it reminded me of being in the middle of Manhattan—people everywhere getting ready for […]

I am challenging you

Thursday, November 16th, 2006

We are making a new Zola Levitt Presents series called “Daniel and the Last Days Battle for Planet Earth.” It is about Daniel and the wars that are coming. I have not studied Daniel in a long time, so I have enjoyed rereading it. Berg Productions was in Israel doing some filming during the Fall […]
