The final stretch of the 2011 Work Your Way journey took place in Egypt and Israel.
Personally Cairo had a tendency to remind me a bit of India. Dry, hot, a lot of poverty, dirty, people trying to constantly sell something to you, bad odors floating around in the atmosphere every here and there etc etc. But still through all that there was a love and compassion for the people which is hard to explain. Especially when thinking that in the very same areas we were walking 25 Coptic Christians were killed just days after we left. I can't help but feel that the only reason I still seem to have a at least a sense of love and compassion towards these people is because of the fact that Christs love has started to manifest itself in my heart, a love that loves all people no matter the cost. A type of love I pray would grow more and more every day.
At the start of the year, I was especially excited about the fact that the last country we would visit would be Israel. To walk where the disciples walked. To throw a rock where David knocked out the great Goliath. To pray where Jesus prayed etc etc. This was indeed special experiences but what stood out for me most was serving at Churches and spending time with Messianic Jews.
Anyway, I feel like I am speaking to much and you probably just want to get to the video, so here goes:
