it was written in the Bible that Moses has led the Israelis out of Egypt in search of the Promised land. Yet, for forty years, the party did not reach the land, reasons as well outlined in the Bible. when Moses climbed Mount Nebu, God appeared before Moses and said to him: "I HAVE LET YOU SEE IT WITH YOUR EYES, BUT YOU WILL NOT CROSS OVER INTO IT." ~ Deuteronomy 34:1-7then, at the age of 120, he passed away, and buried by God in an unknown spot on the mountain.
a life spent serving God no doubt...
but if we look at the World today, with the unending battles between Israelis and Palestinians, between Israelis and the rest of the Arabic countries, and with all the antagonisms between the Israelis and all those standing on the opposite of the world, was it worth it?
leading the chosen people, and spending forty years in the wilderness...yet, even today, peace is a word too luxurious even to murmur...
the hands of God moved in a mysterious way that is uncomprehensible by mere mortals...

Oh, nothing .... but the place that stir my imagination.
Thanks for visiting my blog and left nice comment. :)
yes, it's worth pondering. Despite constant peace negotiations, somehow it's hard to contemplate why peace is still so far far away, why God allows His chosen people to lose their lives years after years...
