Ishmael

President Obama has opened a serious discussion. If you have read my missives on Relief, you know that no one should be deemed homeless in God's universe. I believe God promised Abraham his descendents would have the promise of filling the world. Extremism is not an option.

People are the same the world over. Desperation, hunger, lack of respect and lack of purpose are the evils that cause extremist views. Give that which lifts up a man, and he will avoid the promises of those who would use people to hurt others. Wars, other than those which seek freedom of the oppressed, will cease.

I believe a homeland needs to be carved out for the Palestinian people, but they should not expect Israel. Just as Israel was promised to Jacob, so a world was promised to Ishmael (Genesis 17:18-22). God promised Abraham his descendants would be as the stars of the sky and the sands - and my take on the above verse, (even though it says "nation," it also says "12 rulers") is that the opportunities of the world would be open to Ishmael, should his descendants choose to (PEACEFULLY) take advantage of God's promise. We are all children of Abraham. A nation should be carved out -(named Ishmael, if necessary) and give the Palestinians a homeland. Join together and build a far better homeland than that they were forced to leave.

Do not let anyone believe that fighting is an answer. Science has proved God, so let science and the edicts of relief prove our action. The energy of the universe, The energy of God, the ability of God's people to achieve results, will prevail. Let us recognize the power of energy in our world, and make it happen.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
