I wonder how many will celebrate this evening.........as Israel and Hamas continue a fight that could lead to conflagration. Some Arab countries are canceling celebrations due to the dire events and bloodshed. Will America cancel its reveling? No matter what side of the conflict you are on, consider a time of reflection tonight. Who can make sense of the situation.......even Palestinians are divided about who is to blame. Some reports indicate that the Palestinian Authority is complicit in the destruction of Hamas. Regardless, lives are being lost and this could escalate to unprecedented horrors.
It is easy for me to fast and pray. I have no social plans anyway. Will those who do have plans sacrifice anything to petition the LORD in prayer? Perilous times are upon us. The hatred spills over to our cities. A molotov cocktail was lobbed at a synagogue in Chicago on Monday.
We must seek God, pray for understanding, and take the side of righteousness and justice.
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.......Psalm 91
