Preparing for the trip and experiences of a lifetime to Israel on Saturday, November 5th. As a student and teacher of typology from the Old Testament I am so excited and looking forward to being with the Director of the Jerusalem Center of Biblical Studies and Research, Shlomo Hizak for 12 days. As Saint Augustine has said “The New is in the Old concealed, and the Old is in the New revealed”.

So appreciating the opportunity to share, see where Jesus walked and be baptized in the River Jordan.

I also look forward to meeting again my new friend Robert Ilatiov, who is a member of Knesset Government in Israel, and serves as Chairman of Israel Beitenu Faction and the Israeli Hi-tech Caucus. When I was introduced to Robert at a conference last year we shared and compared our experiences both in Israel and Northern Ireland living with terrorism. Robert said he would arrange to take me to the parliament in Jerusalem. How exciting is that!

I always finish my correspondence with “Walk with the King and be a blessing” and soon “I’ll be walking with the King where He walked”

Covet your prayers for traveling mercies and safety while in Israel!

Going the Extra Mile

Going that extra mile on the elliptical at my cardiac rehab today challenged me to keep a promise to myself and gave me confidence in my own integrity. It challenged me to go beyond my comfort zone. My personal trainer had asked 20 minutes of me but I had promised myself during the week to go the extra mile by 10 minutes every day until today when I did 40 minutes.
It has aided me in the mastery of the destructive habit of procrastination. It has developed definiteness of purpose, insuring me against the common habit of aimlessness. It wasn’t just to strengthen my muscles but it gave me more self-reliance, greater initiative, more enthusiasm, more vision and definiteness of purpose.It is leading to mental growth as well as to physical skill.

What a thought that came originally from the greatest personal Trainer of all in Matthew 5:41
“And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.”

My Prayer

As I spend time each day journaling my time with God, I am inspired by the following prayer that is framed on my office wall, as a motivation each morning as I prepare to walk with the King and be a blessing by His grace and power throughout the day.

“Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love,
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved, as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.” 

? St. Francis of Assisi

When you are wounded or offended in the flesh, allow it to be an opportunity to die to the flesh that you might grow in the spirit.You cannot have a VICTORY in the spirit unless there is a DEFEAT in the flesh. © MJB

Galatians 5:16 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other.
