A Syrian plane shot down a Turkish plane that had offended them by straying across the boundary that separates Syria from Turkey. Turkey claims the intrusion into Syrian air space was an error and that the plane was already in international air space when it was shot down. Turkey is a member of NATO, so representatives of the NATO nations are gathering to consult and decide what should be done to Syria for its offensive act.
In the Kingdom of God there would be no boundary between Syria and Turkey, no war planes, no missiles, no defense departments and no aggression. But if all of those mechanisms did exist, Good will and forgiveness would quickly bring Syrians and Turks together.
This is what we pray for when we say, “Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Imagine that, and pray.
I enjoyed you comment about the Syrian-Turkish situation and totally agree with it. I enjoyed being with you on this morning’s birdwalk. I hope you come back. I’ll keep in touch with your blog as well.
