We pray for the many who are caught in the terrible upsurge of fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Hundreds have been killed, thousands have been wounded, and tens of thousands have fled (especially from the south) toward northern areas, especially Beirut. Fear is rampant. Many think the strikes are a prelude to war, and, indeed, the Israeli government has told its troops to prepare for ground action. The less fortunate (like migrant workers from other nations) are often in difficult situations, virtually stranded and homeless due to the attacks. The U.K. is sending troops to Cyprus in anticipation of mass evacuations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some think a war between Israel and Hezbollah would be far worse than the one with Hamas; others, that Hezbollah will quickly bow to pressure. Regardless, many have been hurt, and many more will be. Pray for the churches, believers and Kingdom efforts in the area to be a blessing in this difficult time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
