Teach Us to Prayعينة

### A WAY OUT As I watch the Israel-Palestine conflict unfold, I am deeply saddened. I recognize this is a deeply entrenched and complex geopolitical issue with profound historical and religious roots. In the context of the verse Hebrews 4:16, which states, "Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." , the conflict underscores the human need for mercy and grace, as both Israelis and Palestinians have endured generations of suffering, loss, and hardship. The verse encourages us to confidently approach God, seeking help during times of need. During this conflict, individuals on both sides will turn to their respective faiths for solace and guidance, praying for divine intervention and a peaceful resolution. The Israel-Palestine conflict is a stark reminder of the significance of and need for compassion and reconciliation. For many, it's a plea for mercy and grace in the face of seemingly insurmountable challenges. It highlights the importance of understanding and empathy and the need for a resolution that brings lasting peace and justice to the people caught in the middle of this conflict. This scripture is a potent reminder of how we are instructed to come before our God confidently and boldly with our prayers and that we will find mercy and grace when we approach God, asking for his help. Join me in prayer that peace will soon be reached for these people. \- Roger Hasper
