Israel Pics and Update

By | November 10, 2011

I recently had the privilege of visiting Israel with a group from my church. If you’ve never been there, I highly recommend taking the trip. I’m already planning on going back next year.

Five months ago, I posted about some health issues that I’ve been battling this year. In the past month, I’ve finally seen some improvements through my recovery treatment, and I also experienced a breakthrough during the Israel trip. I had more energy and better sleep than I’ve had in many months. How cool is that to experience healing in the place where Jesus healed!? Thank you all for the prayers!

I’m continuing to improve and I hope to post some new lessons soon!

Here are some pics from the trip…

My baby girl… 4 months old! I knew this one would make you smile 🙂

I’ve posted many more pictures from the trip on my Google+ account: view them here.

As always, you are welcome to leave your comments below.

Have a great day!

    Eric, It’s been a while since I’ve heard from you. I think the favorite photo for me is the one of your beautiful daughter.

    Best to you,

    Eric, Beautiful photos of your trip to Israel! And yes, the last one did bring a smile. It reminds me of what Jesus said when He was in Israel, “Suffer the little children to come unto Me for such is the Kingdom of Heaven.” We will keep you in our prayers and believe for a complete healing for you. By the way, Jesus also said that “healing was the children’s bread”. Believe Him for your ‘daily bread’. Be Blessed Brother!

    The acceptable year of the Lord is what the bible say we are in need of. Uniting all races and destroying evil works that separate us with things like racism and racial discrimination are essential in this day and time.

    Hey Eric, On my defense of Israel, I’ll give you credit to back links but can I post your Israel pictures on The Political Sandbox? That’s one of my blogs. And YES! Your daughter made me smile, reminded me of my 30 year old daughter and my grand daughter; still smiling! What is up with your health? If it is cancer, I can be a good crutch, as I am a savior.

    Great posts Eric. Glad to hear you’re starting to feel better.
    Even if we all can’t get to Israel now, we believers will gather around the throne there soon, eh?

    Eric,
    First, congratulations on your new, beautiful baby girl. She’s adorable. The picture made me laugh.
    What an exciting experience to visit The Holy Land! The Lord has given you a talent in how to take pictures. I can see His Glory in all of them. My husband and I have not had the opportunity to travel on an airplane as yet. He mentioned not too long ago that our first trip together on an airplane will be Jerusalem. Hallelujah!! I am really looking forward to it. I don’t know if you know about Kim Clement and his ministry online. He was in Israel about a month ago for several weeks ministering to the Israelis. He live streamed the last gathering. I watched it and was blessed beyond measure in so many ways. It was an extraordinary experience with His Glory and Presence.
    Praise God for Your Healing! The same is happening for me as well!

    Eric, great pictures and I must say that I am unaware of your health issues. My wife Sherrie ( 44 ) has stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer. We have been dealing with it as best we possibly can. We seek the best medical treatment and pray a great deal. The good news is she was given 3 to 9 months to live and that was January 10, 2005.

    I am now attempting to buy time freedom online.

    We will include you in our prayers and wish you and your beautiful family all the best.

    Hey Eric, nice to see you were here (from a fellow Eric). I happen to live in Haifa and love it here. I’m curious where the view of TA was taken from though because it looks like you were taking a photo over south Tel Aviv and I didn’t know there were any hotels there…

    Michael,

    Go to Amazion. Look up the book, “The Healing Code” by Alexander Loyd (co-auther is Dr. Ben Johnson who was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer in 2004 and is now cured using the Healing Codes). Check the book out and may God bless you and your wife.

    Hi Eric:

    Congrats!! I keep telling that I have to revisit Israel before I die. I love that country dearly. Reading the Bible makes things alive. So you could not take me, but possible next time. Pictures are great, sorry they were not all labeled.

    Glad you got to go to Israel. I have always wanted to go to the Holy Land. Your daughter is so precious. She reminds me of my newest granddaughter which is about the same age. They really start getting fun at this age.
