Bible verse of the day:
Psalm 121 - I lift my eyes up to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made the heaven and earth. He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade on your right hand. The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore

Praying for the peace of Jerusalem. Pray for total victory over the Iranian regime and its ability to project terror and tyranny against Israel and the United States and our Arab allies, but against their own people as well.
