JERUSALEM

Continuing our trip in Israel took us to some significant locations today:

The Mount of Olives
The Garden of Gethsemane, where we took some time alone to pray
The Via Dolorosa
The Church of the Holy Sepulchre
The Upper Room
The Southern Steps of the Temple - we read one of the Psalms of Ascent - Psalm 136 - and walked up the steps as we said each verse, responding at each step with 'His love endures forever.'
The Western Wall (pictured above), where we had the opportunity to pray for a short time

And be blessed.

Your day today is at the heart of why I wished I could have gone. I know you have seen so many awesome things, but this was it for me.
