My first Journey to the Holy Land: Entry #2

 I'm signing in on my phone today. -just checking to see if I can write and post blog posts on my phone, so I don't have to bring my laptop.

It's hard to know how to prepare for a trip like this. I've never been overseas before. -doin' my research and following ALL the advice from everyone!

It's weird to think I will be in a foreign country next week at this time. 

I hope my chickens will still be alive when I get home... 🏡 

Aunt Sheryl sent an email explaining what to do if a siren goes off and making sure we have insurance. I have no idea how I will react to frequent visits to the bomb shelter. Will I panic? If I think about it logically, statistically speaking very few civilians have been killed over there. There have been more murders in Kelso/Longview (towns near me) this past month than there have been in Jerusalem, and Jerusalem is a MUCH bigger city! That doesn't really make me feel better.

The verse I read this morning:

"The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand " (Psalm 37: 23-24 KJV)

Aunt Sheryl said to recite Psalms when the siren goes off. The WORD is my weapon! 


... let's see if I can add pictures and post this from my phone!


...well, I can't figure it out... I'll post this and try again tomorrow
