Sometimes I imagine our crazy-loving God must decide He needs to get creative in helping us connect the dots and give us a glimpse of His heart. That’s how I felt today.
First a little background…
I’m traveling this week with a group of women in Israel/Palestine. I saw the Holy sites years ago, but last March when I came, I was like a cartoon character running headlong into this wall that is a concrete (literally! :)) picture of this land and how people feel.
Divided.
Now I’m back to learn more, listen more, make more new friends.
Palestinian. Israeli. Muslim. Jew. Christian.
People divided.
We’re pro-everyone, praying to absorb all that we can of the heart of God towards His people. Praying to bring His Spirit of peace and grace into every conversation.
So today I think God got a gleam in His eye and started connecting the dots for us by reminding us of another time He connected the dots for clueless, but well meaning disciples like us.
