Engedi: land of living water
Engedi is a beautiful island Oasis in the midst of the sweltering ocean of the Judean Desert. It was in this paradise that David would remain for a long time while being hunted by Saul. It was while here that he probably wrote Psalm 23. While visiting this area Val read us this passage, and there in this setting it became vividly alive.
While I was Not awake at 4:30 this morning, you have been on my mind. Praying for you in the late hours last night, hoping you were all able to get some sleep before heading to the airport and the long flight to Israel. I pray that all of you are able to get some "good" rest on the flight over. I know that you will learn so much from Erez as he shows you his country. He is a wonderful teacher. Looking forward to hearing about your adventures.
