Sabbath in the Holy Land

  The Sabbath has descended on the Holy Land
    Seven million Jews ‘midst a miracle in sand

  Tonight all look to the sky 
    to spot missiles aimed at the heart of God’s eye

In dreams I walk through the desert sands, the Holy lands, longing to encounter Jesus. A vision, cinematic, once upon a time, He hangs from the cross, red robe about His loins, the cross deeply implanted in the arid beach sand. Shalom, my friend. The beach is all I knew. Perhaps the Holy Land will now be rendered ever elusive. I'm watching! ~Anaya
