Road to Gaza (part 5) Conclusion

The “Road to Gaza” is my journey following and listening to the Spirit of the LORD. It is not about simple nods and greetings along the road as you pass by people. It is walking 140km or farther alongside one another telling the story of the new covenant. Some will leave rejoicing. Other might choose to take another road. That’s ok, I’ll still be walking and I’m sure I’ll meet some more people along the road.

I hope this answers the question, “Why the Road to Gaza?’” It is not a short answer. Sorry. However, it’s an honest answer. It may also answer why my blog entries drop off here and there. It’s me asking myself the question, “am I listening to the Spirit?” Empty spaces reveal a transparent answer.

I do desire more accountability. I want to listen and see more. It’s one of the reasons I started my 52 people photo blog. Who are the people I’m walking with? It makes you stop and look around. Daily being lead by the Spirit.

To my friend who asked this question, thank you. You know me a little better now. Maybe more than you ever wanted too. You are one of my best friends though we have never met face to face. When the day comes, if we are not to old, I would love to literally walk this road with you.

Peace.

    johnathan,
    i would like to comment with just two words; “thank you!”

    but i have to add that the link to your account of meeting and HELPING whitney in paragraph 5 doesn’t work.

    friday evening in jerusalem, it is customary to bless “Shabbat Shalom!”

    For those reading this, the story of Whitney comes from, “Stories from the road” September 7th, 2005. You can click “Archives – September 2005″ and scroll down to find the story. (I will try to fix the link)

    Nir, what a beautiful custom. I must adopt this and share it with others. Thank you for this gift.

    peace.
