Back to the future

And the second elections in Israel are over, we get a terrorist attack. Hamas is back, now that it's favorite candidate has won the Israeli elections, and it's safe to kill again. In other news, new rocket lunchers are developed in Gaza. They will reach as far as Ashdod.

There is such a feeling of helplessness that I get when I hear about all of these dreadful acts of terror. I feel so weak that I just decide not to say anything at all. Then when I think about speaking, I say to myself "It really won't matter because no one wants to hear what I really think anyway".

So, I said to the Lord "What do I say. What do I say." I opened the Book and it opened to Hosea Chapter 11. The heading read "God loves Israel and wants to forgive"

People only see what this destruction is doing to Israel. They don't see that it is breaking God's heart. God created Israel and Israel should look to God alone for his defence.

God helps to those who help themselves

That's not what the book of the law says. It actually says the exact opposite.

I am not sure about that. But I am not an expert.

This is what God says:
(taken from Psalm 91)

14. For he yearns for Me, and I shall rescue him; I shall fortify him because he knows My name.

15. He will call Me and I shall answer him; I am with him in distress; I shall rescue him and I shall honor him.

16. With length of days I shall satiate him, and I shall show him My salvation.

These are His conditions to help anyone "yearn for Him" and "know His name". I am not an expert at all. But God doesn't require us to be experts. He makes it very simple.

A little child could understand what He wants.
