King Solomon's beautiful description of the Land in springtime rings just as true in our days, in the modern State of Israel! When "the winter has passed, the rain is over and gone" (verse 11), travelers come out to see the gorgeous blossoms, and the songbirds can be heard throughout the Land. Celebrate the arrival of spring and plant your very own tree in the Land. You'll receive a special certificate attesting to the tree that you planted to beautify the Holy Land. Makes a wonderful gift!

I try not to miss a day, because my greatest enjoyment is the Scripture post. Though I do not speek Hebrew, these will help in my quest. As for my location, just remember, in my mind I am at that great wall we pray at. I pray you and your family incur many blessing from our L_rd. I bless you and desire you receive my blessings in the humility they are sent. Micah Be-Yehudah |
