Sunday’s Memory Verse, 10/15/23

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7 NLT

There is a lot of misinformation about this war going out. That’s why it is so important to know the truth about what is happening and not believe propaganda coming from Hamas. You can trust Amir. I have followed him for a long time.

What Are the Odds?

I was a little overwhelmed just now to discover that Psalm 122 is in my Bible reading plan for today. Verses 6-7 say,

“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
    “May those who love you be secure.
May there be peace within your walls
    and security within your citadels.”

My thoughts: True peace is found in Jesus, the Messiah, our Savior, the Prince of Peace. Someday soon He will return!

Kidnapped By Terrorists

My heart is broken for the people of Israel and I cannot write about anything else today.

The brutality being inflicted on innocent Israeli citizens is pure evil, unlike anything we have ever seen. I will not share the horrifying pictures, but they can be found elsewhere.

We must pray for the captives: babies, children, teens, adults, and the elderly. May they be brought home safely. Pray also for their families who are grief-stricken beyond anything we can imagine. These are only a few of the kidnapped children.

Unbelievers in Israel are asking believers to pray for them. Let us pray!

How You Can Help

There are thousands of evacuees – many of them orphaned children – in need of assistance.

Here is a list summarizing a few organizations that can make the most out of any donation you choose to give. (From the article How You Can Support Israel, from Amir’s newsletter. Read it here.)


 Galgal Hozer (the turning wheel)
https://galgal.ussl.co.il/?lang=en
Together with Shlomi, the acting head of this NGO, I spent the last two days distributing food and essentials to the people of Sderot in the area, to the amazing hundreds of volunteers from “Red David’s Shield” (red-cross equivalent) who rushed to the war zones. Shlomi will keep on providing help to those in need affected by the war. 

Nir-Oz Support 
https://my.israelgives.org/en/fundme/kibbutzniroz?fbclid=IwAR3PaahjTIraPVvuxPHtfURbW6NL__t3l_ANRQvbNMxAQ3SWv4wHHVCekFE
My friends from Kibbutz Nir-Oz have suffered an unbelievable loss. More than 15 Kibbutz members were murdered viciously. Please help them recuperate.  

One-Heart
https://www.jgive.com/new/he/ils/donation-targets/110052 or 
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/nlrk02wors5f2ddyyv766/OneHeart.pdf?rlkey=01sv6jtknhwbsnm3wajcs05g1&dl=0
One-heart, devoted to aid across the world, has joined forces with Ein-Prat (which my amazing cousin helped establish) and OR, and has been working sleeplessly these last few days to provide help to the refugees and evacuees. Through them, we were able to reach dozens of families and hundreds of refugees.

Jewish Assistance & Relief fund
https://www.jarisrael.org/english
 Or
https://www.jgive.com/new/en/usd/collect/donation-targets/68382/amount
My good friend Lilach Lester founded a wonderful organization devoted for helping Israel’s poor. Lilach has established the Israeli Food Bank and was awarded a special commendation from the president of Israel. In the last three days, the entire organization has turned its attention towards the refugees of the war. 

Nachshon Preparatory Academy

This preparatory school for high school graduates sits right next to Sderot & Kibbutz Shoval at the heart of what now is sadly a war zone. They are working around the clock with many of their alumni for aid and relief in the area. 

 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.  Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’  The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:29-31 NIV (emphasis mine)

“My heart is with Israel’s princes,
    with the willing volunteers among the people.
    Praise the Lord!” Judges 5:9 NIV

Verses for Meditation, 10/12/23

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 NIV

Quote of the Week, 10/11/23

When peace comes, we will perhaps, in time, be able to forgive the Arabs for killing our sons, but it will be harder for us to forgive them for having forced us to kill their sons. Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us.”

Monday’s Verse, 10/9/23

“But as for me, I will sing of Your mighty strength and power;
Yes, I will sing joyfully of Your lovingkindness in the morning;
For You have been my stronghold
And a refuge in the day of my distress.
To You, O [God] my strength, I will sing praises;
For God is my stronghold [my refuge, my protector, my high tower], the God who shows me [steadfast] lovingkindness.” Psalm 59:16-17 AMP
