RE: Israel: It's not a dusty desert but rather a lush green oasis (discussion)

in #religion7 years ago

You have inspired me to post some of my own photos of the beautiful and conflicted Land of Promise. Great Scripture reference. So true. I lived there for a time and have wonderful memories and photos. Thank you for sharing @truthbeyondlies

Sort:  

We would love to see your photos, please do post them and let us know when you do! Do you mind telling us about your time there... what was it like and what did it look like? It was our pleasure to share.

Will definitely do so ! And then I'll answer your questions. Hard to summarize. For me it is like going home. I really love that Land. Although there are many countries I have visited (and lived) and I definitely have favourites. The love for Israel is more like the love for a person than a place....

Understandable! I know where you are coming from (about it being home). I have a place that feels like home to me, I do not live there but when I go there I find real peace. If I am going to be completely honest, I did not know that peace like that was real, so I get where you are coming from. I (electrocutie) have really enjoyed chatting with you and hope we get to do it again soon. Take care!

It's sad that we really can't "know" anything with in sort of certainty concerning these matters. It seems that a handful of very powerful individuals are poisoning the wells of knowledge and information.

It is sad. With everything that is going on in the Middle East (Syria and this) right now we are a little more on edge. For me (cannot speak for my partner on this part) I feel like I am watching a glass fall off a counter in slow motion and there is nothing I can do to stop it. I have to let it shatter. I also feel like the more we dig the darker this world is getting. I am normally a very positive person, but some of the things we have learned in just the past few months have made being positive very hard, so all of this has been disturbing to me. How are you holding up?

I've been good, just very tired from IRL stuff. It's been hard to keep in touch with everyone I would like to on here. Just such little free time, and it's a juggling act trying to create things and what not.

Yeah the world is very dark indeed. Once one becomes aware of the "rat race" that has been set before us, it becomes very difficult to operate within it. The deeper one looks the more pessimistic things become. Really makes one long for the coming of the city that human hands did not create. The god of this world, seems to really be delegating power to just to worst of his children. So it's no wonder things are as crazy as they seem, it's also no wonder that very few are able to see it.

Well I wish you two Peace.

We totally understand. Trying to balance real life and things like this is a real struggle. For me, there are times that I want to create something but I just do not have the energy. Have to be honest researching some of the subjects we have looked into has mentally exhausted me. Going down the "rabbit hole" and seeing the darkness then putting it all into words can be a challenge. There have been days where I do not do anything but stay in my own head so I (we) understand. Stay strong friend! We are here if you ever need us. Take care of you!
