I am so blessed. After 11 days traveling through Jordan, the West Bank and Israel I am home safe and healthy. The experience has me reexamining my choices and what I will be doing with the rest of my life. Seeing the Middle Eastern conflict up close and personal has me stopping in my tracks. Couple that with the renactment of Christ's walk through these countries ending at
His crucifixation and resurrection. There are no words that I can type to begin to cover the revelations I felt. So keep me in your prayers as I begin the task of putting my thoughts to paper in the weeks to come..Shalom Lisa

Here and back again....
Good morning family and friends:
It is 2:25 am and I am up and moving on Israeli time. Got in last night at LAX at 4:35 pm....I am posting a quick "I am back safe" missive for now. In a short and inadequate summary it was life changing and it will take me weeks probably months to absorb all that I have seen and felt. We had a whirlwind of a schedule that covered every view of Israel throught the eyes of its varied and amazing inhabitants. My appreciation for the Middle East question is unresolved but evolving as a result of many conversations with both Jews and Palestinians. To have walked the roads, through the cities and countryside of Christ was humbling. I will be making more posts in hopefully a more chronological fashion in the weeks to come.....till then Shalom Lisa
