Harold and I are feeling like we are called to go to Israel in 2010. Not sure how that is going to happen unless there is a big change in our finances. I do know that God does not give a desire to do something unless He has already made a way for it to happen.
I was reading in Luke about keeping your lamp lit and being ready for the return of our Master. I was thinking, what does that look like and I thought about when one of the kids went out and you leave the light on for them and wait up for their return even if your in bed you keep one eye open and listen intently for their return. I think that is what God means by keeping our lamps let. He says that we will not know the time of His return and He also says that when He finds you watching for Him that He will dress Himself to serve and He will have you recline at the table and will serve you. I wonder what that will be like. I know that there are times when I get angry or frustrated with life, then I wonder what that will look like to Him if He were to show up on the door step at that time. God is so good to us but He also stands on His word.
I am not sure what that has to do with Israel, but it is what came to my mind while I was typing. Go figure He would give me a puzzle like this to think on. God bless have a great day!!
