Hear O Israel… Part 1
My blog title is “road to gaza” which Nir tells me, “Gaza could be interpreted as ‘Hell.’” Nice, the “Road to Hell” Never thought about it that way. I of course took the name from the book of Acts and the story of Philip and the Ethiopian conversion. The point was inspired by people you meet on the road not the destination. (Although, having said that, I meet a lot of people who’s lives are a road leading to hell… They are harassed, helpless and without hope) Nir and I traveled a road… not to Gaza, which is a good thing since the time I was there, conflict was heavy and still is as of the writing of this blog.
No, our road led to different places…
Jerusalem, City of Gold and the home of Nir Alon. I’m not sure what seeds fell, where they fell or how much yield will come from the crop of our journey together. I only know what has started to grow in my life because of my friendship and my life is changed for the better.
As I continue to share in future parts of this story, you will hear my questions and thoughts about the physical vs. the spiritual, the traditional vs. the mystery and the humanity vs. the humanity. It was a lot to take in. I only know I missed most of it. Yet, what I did manage to capture will stay with me forever. Some are photos, some are thoughts… all of it is heart.
peace.
