Bethany.....
On Bethany, May and Martha Worship and Serve Jesus (see Luke 10:38-42)
Here is also where Lazarus death took place, but also where he was raised form the Dead (see John 11:1-44)
Here is also where Mary anointed Jesus with very costly oil (see John 12:1-8)
According to tradition, this was Mary, Martha and Lazarus’ home.
Qumran.....
Most scholars believe that the Qumran scrolls were left by a Jewish religious community, apparently Essenes, who occupied the site from some time in the second century B.C. into the first century A.D.
The Scrolls include various books of the Hebrew Bible / Old Testament.
Jericho......
Jericho is located in the Judean Wilderness, near the Jordan River and is the oldest city in the world with around 10,000 years old.
Here is where Joshua guided the people of Israel to the promise land. (see Joshua 1-6)
Outside of Jericho is possibly when the Temptations of Satan to Jesus took place. (see Luke 4:1-14)
This is Sycamore that Zacchaeus climbed to encounter Jesus. (see Luke 19:1-10)
Dead Sea.....
It’s called a sea (because of the hebrew word of sea) although it is a big lake; it is bordering to Jordan to the east, and Israel and the West Bank to the west.
Its surface and shores are over 400 meters below sea level, therefore is the lowest elevation on earth.
It is so salty that there is no life on it, and people can float.
God’s redemptive plan is amazing....share it!
As I was holding my son’s hand and contemplating God’s creation.... I was able to feel God’s hand holding me as he whispers to my ear “go and love EVERYONE that I create" It is my prayer that our passion for His children would increase every day, and that this journal may be some how useful!
My call...
Romans 10:13-14 (NLT) For “EVERYONE who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them?
