With the cessation of hostilities, relative peace returns to the Israeli/Lebanon border. Ps. Guy sent this final thankyou note from Israel for the support and prayers he received. Here's an excerpt:
While experiencing all of this I felt a deep ache in my heart and I comprehended how terrible it is to see the face of your loved ones, your children, standing with faces full of fear, sadness and seriousness.
"Let the little children come unto me". I feel that at this time Yeshua will come to his little children who live in the north, we are all his children. We were able to be a light to Israel during these trying days.
