The March of the Living

Such a stark contrast from yesterday afternoon! We were surprised as we left the Zion Gate to be met by thousands of Jewish teenagers from around the world who were participating in the “March of the Living”.

The idea was that they would meet in Europe and march in different places (including the death camp Auschwitz) on their way towards Jerusalem. They wanted to demonstrate that they are still alive! Even though Europe tried to kill them, they are still alive.

It was actually quite moving. I found myself celebrating along with them. Thank You, God, that evil will not prevail.

Now… if they could only see that Jesus is also not dead, but alive!
