“Comfort, comfort my people says your God” Isaiah 40:1

Are we not lost for words as we witnessed the removal of four of the Jewish slain from Gaza?

But we heard this morning that it was not the mother Shiri that was returned but that another unidentified body was in the coffin.

This is surely a time of deep grief & mourning especially in Israel and the Jews of the diaspora and those who care about Israel.

Where is Shiri ?? Is she still alive ??.

Is this another Hamas evil propaganda stunt ?

Psalm 83:1-4

O God, do not remain silent;

do not turn a deaf ear,

do not stand aloof, O God.

See how your enemies growl,

how your foes rear their heads.

With cunning they conspire against your people;

they plot against those you cherish.

 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation,

so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.

Please take a moment to remember:

Shiri Bibas

Ariel Bibas aged 5

Kfir Bibas aged 2

Oded Lifshitz

Although we cannot comfort the father Yarden Bibas or the family of Oded physically we can pray the following verse believing that God will impart something from us to them at this time.

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God”.      2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Still praying for a miracle-amen
