Cheri and I planned on this trip last year but after her accident I really did not want go and I knew that it would not be the same without her. When I found out that my daughter Jenifer could take Cheri's place my heart was again spurred to the idea of the trip. My sister Cyd also made the trip. So I am in Isreal after travelling around Jordan today with the two ladies I love the best in my life.
I am so glad that I decided to make the journey. I have already felt much closer to the Lord, especially after standing at the site of His baptism in the Jordan River. What a moment, especially when Trevor asked me to read of Jesus' baptism from the Bible. It is almost unexplainable how much the Scriptures come alive when you actually are standing at the various sites you read of in God's Word. I thank the Lord for the opportunity to make this once in a lifetime trip.
