Just now, as I was sitting down to write this, I looked at a picture of my family then at the picture of the Temple Mount as seen from the City of David and I was struck once again by the fact that I can feel so close to home yet be walking all over Biblical history. I cannot even describe how it feels to literally walk on something that has been around for over 2,000 years or to walk in the tunnel that Hezekiah built 700 years before Jesus walked on earth. You start to ask yourself how something could be so well built that thousands of people still see it today. Every step I took yesterday I was reminded of the greatness of our God and how faithful He has been to His people despite the choices they have made. It reminds me how thankful I am that the God who was (and is) so faithful and loving and patient with Israel is just the same with me.
