President Biden proposed a Ceasefire Deal last Spring (May). The world endorsed it, then this deal would have to be implemented by the ‘next team’ “Trump’s team” he sealed it. Last month, with a yay Biden’s deal is done and they are speaking as ONE team. “The toughest negotiation ever”—Biden Unfortunately Netanyahu waited until Trump is about to be inaugurated, so that Trump will allow Isreal to bomb Iranian Nuclear facilities. Isreal and Hamas agreed to a Permanent Ceasefire!

“The missing piece of peaceful beginnings in place ~ May God shower mercy upon the human race—I Am Anaya

Blessed Be The Peacemakers
(A prayer to mark this eventful day)

Blessed be the peacemakers
Who change violence into lasting peace
May they become as one team of partakers           
and may the deadly fire at long last cease

May God give you strength to bear the worldly burdens
According to our Lord's Scriptures and acts we believe in 
An abiding truce, the missing piece
May fall into place for the sake of world peace
Mid East, the cradle of civilization
Bring a brightening day upon mankind's re-creation

The beginning of the tribulation begins with a three year truce between Israel and the Arabs. In that time the new Temple will be built. That's the first three and a half years. After that something worse than the Holocaust will come for the next three and a half years.

The Seven Seals "false peace". I read "During the first three and a half years of the Tribulation, in spite of what else may be going on around the world, Israel will experience peace resulting from the treaty they entered into with the Antichrist, which promised them protection, independence, and security." If you think about it, both Arabs and Israel are anti-Christ (non-believers) I believe that the Anti-Christ is an energy.

I hope the joy lasts long enough for suffering people. The greed of people with power will always threaten masses of meager means. Wish the best for peace in that region.

a very fragile peace, walking a slippery tightrope, I feel. We shall see.

Anaya, you composed a poem with lovely sentiment. It is a reflection of the kind of person you are...one who has empathy for other people who suffer in the midst of war and death. It's hard to know whether there will really be peace...Netanyahu's government could collapse if he stops fighting. The extreme right wing of his coalition detests this peace deal idea, so I am not considering the deal as done at this point. I suspect he will be looking for ways to sabotage the whole thing. I hope I am wrong, but time will certainly tell. Strangely enough, Trump may be much harder on Netanyahu than Biden has been...all complicated and impossible to know at this time.

You are so kind to me, I'm humbled. Three hostages (women) released just today, a very fragile peace, walking a slippery tightrope, I feel. We shall see.

We're still in phase 1, most will believe it when they release the hostages, it's so sad, but we have to stay strong for them and hold on to that peaceful negotiation. Phase 2 & 3...they will rebuild and care for Gaza Strip people...perhaps a separate State? I don't know . I'm glad to be here and watch with the world. Peace be with you.
