Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem

John 12

Jesus Anointed at Bethany

12 Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2 Here a dinner was given in Jesus’ honor. Martha served, while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. 3 Then Mary took about a pint[a] of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

4 But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, 5 “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.[b]” 6 He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it.

7 “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. 8 You will always have the poor among you,[c] but you will not always have me.”

9 Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews found out that Jesus was there and came, not only because of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. 10 So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well, 11 for on account of him many of the Jews were going over to Jesus and believing in him.

Shalom Jerusalem. There was a thread about a guy who got beat up for wearing an IDF shirt.

I have an IDF shirt.

Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem

For over five years, I have had a little "Vintage Vinyl" consignment going on at a music and menswear shop nearby. Although I make a little bit of money, the joy is in "The Hunt". Miles of riding through rural Massachusetts, digging through boxes at thrift stores and barn sales, and the final triumphant entry into the store with my booty have become part of my "Joie de vivre". Ian, the shop-owner said that everytime I come in, it's like a ray of sunshine. That made me feel so good! Because of my age-group and my life as a Boomer Musician, I know exactly what records will sell and what ones to leave behind. It seems that the younger generations have become so tired of the awful "music" emanating from the Establishment Media, that they are making a U-Turn back to Classic Rock on Vinyl. The Establishment Media is now trying to cash in on this trend by re-issuing the best iconic albums on this Vinyl and charging more for them.

Of course, not everybody has been able to preserve Daddy's stereo system to play this new vinyl on. And so, some enterprising folks in Massachusetts have gathered together the old guys from Route 128, the "Technology Highway" ( Bose, AR, Kurzweil, Moog, Sounddesign, Tweeter, Tech-Hi-Fi, etc) to make brand-new Analog Stereos and Turntables for the new and vintage vinyl. They are greatly reduced in size but still sound awesome. The name of the company that made my wonderful new turntable is "U-Turn"! It is a brilliant name for the company, for several reasons:

1. Route 128 is a beltway: That means that you travel a very long way before you end up very close to where you began. You are, in effect, making a U-Turn.

2. Turntables: Well, yeah. Turntables turn around and around.

3. The U-Turn: The Technology (Analog), Medium (Vinyl), and even the Music (Classic Rock) have all taken a U-Turn.

Anyway, I wish I had thought of that! Somebody is an incredibly smart guy!

In Today's Passage from the Gospel of John, we meet the Woman who anointed the feet of Jesus with an expensive perfume. In another story, a "Sinful" Woman washes Jesus feet with her tears and dries them with her hair. In both instances, the women are criticized for their method of honoring Jesus. Their style of prayer is just too radical and different for the critics, and they self-righteously rebuke her.

Jesus, in turn, rebukes THEM.

Both the Hebrew and Greek words that are translated "repentance" imply making a U-Turn. As anyone from Boston knows "Banging-a-Yuwie" (especially on Route 128!) will get you in a heap of trouble. Relatives and Friends will have a hard time understanding your U-Turn, and might even criticize or ridicule you. Some might even try to imitate your joy by manufacturing something that looks like it, without making the U-Turn themselves.

But, there is no substitute. Accept no "Imitations", like New Years Resolutions, Self-Help Programs, Special Diets, etc.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Psalm 77

To the leader: according to Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A Psalm.

1 I cry aloud to God,
aloud to God, that he may hear me.
2 In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;
in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying;
my soul refuses to be comforted.
3 I think of God, and I moan;
I meditate, and my spirit faints.
Selah

4 You keep my eyelids from closing;
I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5 I consider the days of old,
and remember the years of long ago.
6 I commune* with my heart in the night;
I meditate and search my spirit:*
7 ‘Will the Lord spurn for ever,
and never again be favourable?
8 Has his steadfast love ceased for ever?
Are his promises at an end for all time?
9 Has God forgotten to be gracious?
Has he in anger shut up his compassion?’
Selah
10 And I say, ‘It is my grief
that the right hand of the Most High has changed.’

11 I will call to mind the deeds of the Lord;
I will remember your wonders of old.
12 I will meditate on all your work,
and muse on your mighty deeds.
13 Your way, O God, is holy.
What god is so great as our God?
14 You are the God who works wonders;
you have displayed your might among the peoples.
15 With your strong arm you redeemed your people,
the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
Selah

16 When the waters saw you, O God,
when the waters saw you, they were afraid;
the very deep trembled.
17 The clouds poured out water;
the skies thundered;
your arrows flashed on every side.
18 The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind;
your lightnings lit up the world;
the earth trembled and shook.
19 Your way was through the sea,
your path, through the mighty waters;
yet your footprints were unseen.
20 You led your people like a flock
by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
