New Year

As 2013 is coming to a close ( in another 2 hours here in Israel) and 2014 is opening it's doors to us, The 2 Spies are looking backwards and forwards at the same time. We are so very grateful for all the support we have received from friends and family as we walked the Land this past year. We are looking forward to see what new avenues of adventure this next year will bring.

We know that we will have many blessing but we also know that we are headed into some tough times ahead. With many enemies surrounding us and forces from beyond in Europe and the United States playing tug-o-war with our borders, we can only look up to the Maker of the Covenant and the Keeper of Israel. We know that He is the One who sustains us and it is His Everlasting Arms that are under us supporting us.

We are grateful for the 'earthly' Shomers (guards) that He as assigned to watch over us~ the IDF. They are such a diverse group but their military service and dedication to Israel draws them together. We appreciate the strength it takes for our Sons and Daughters to carry this responsibility. For these we promise, with God's help, to continue to pray for them and assist them in any way possible.

May this next year be one of Peace for us all

The Unexpected Soldier
