Hidden In Jerusalem

Just a thought: There are those who do not understand why America should stand with Israel. Many have not had biblical teachings and do not understand the relationship between God and his people. For them, it is not enough for us "old people " to explain the blessings and promises of a Bible they don't understand. A book of teachings of past generations they have no relationship with. They continue to align themselves with false information and the tug of the heartstrings of perceived injustice to the Palestinian people.
Just as the heart of Pharaoh was hardened in biblical times, many contemporary hearts have been hardened to the truth of the struggles of Israel. But God has always been a God of patience and mercy....and mystery.
In this age of "open your mouth and let anything speak," I would remind you of...Ephesians 4:31
Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.
Regardless of the fact that this is a biblical reference...it is a value we are taught in grade school. Be kind to one another.
The Lord is working on us all..continue to pray for our country and that our hearts be melted to be one with the heart of God....
Oh and one more thing..remember the mystery of the word of God...the word Jerusalem is mentioned over 800 times in the Bible. You may not have ever noticed, but God' s love for us is hidden in his love for Jerusalem...Jer USA lem.
Have a great day
