I'm am currently in the Holy Land of Israel with 32 of our church members. I can't even begin to describe how wonderful it is. Seeing the Sea of Galilee where Jesus performed so many of His miracles; He was raised in this area, called many of His disciples from here, and nearly all of the Bible's setting is within a few miles of this area.
Then, to drive into Jerusalem -- the City of David -- the Holiest City in the World, the city for which Jesus wept - unbelivable. We have prayed where Jesus prayed (Garden of Gethsemane), stood where Jesus stood (the Temple of Jerusalem), walked where Jesus walked (the Via Dolorosa) and have been to the place to which Jesus will return when He comes again one day (the Mount of Olives). Words cannot describe this experience. I truly wish every one of you could be here right now.
Today, we will worship as you worship at McGregor. We won't have incredible music as we have at McGregor, no huge crowds, no great Sunday School classes, but still -- how could we be more blessed? Today, we will worship in Jerusalem. What a blessing!
I'm praying for a great day for everyone back at McGregor - I KNOW I'll have a great day here in Israel.
God is good - all the time.
