"Perhaps most amazing of all, is the presence of an under water pathway. Along the length of the the Gulf of Aquaba, depths reach to an average of one mile and the Egyptian shoreline drops steeply under water at a slope of about 45 degrees. If the Israelites had tried to have crossed anywhere else along the Gulf of Aquaba they would have been faced with an extremely steep drop to about one mile. With all of their animals and wagons, the task would have been practically impossible. Only here, on the shores of Nuweiba, does the 'pathway' drop off at a gradual slope of one in fourteen, to a depth of just over 850 meters. On the Saudi side the slope climbs again at a slope of one in ten. The Bible describes it as, "Away in the sea and a " path in the mighty waters" (Isaiah 43:16, 17) The distance from Nuweiba to Saudi Arabia is about 9.6 miles. And the width of the under water bridge is estimated to be 900 meters."Saturday, June 13, 2009

Our support letter: The Bible,
As Christians, we have all the support we will ever need written in the Bible. Man has no control whatsoever over God’s promised provision. When God opens the windows of heaven to pour out a blessing, no man can stop it. He opens doors no man can shut and shuts doors no man can open. When God gives us the green light, we are unstoppable.We need not kiss up to man or depend on man for anything at anytime. God is on the throne and not man. God’s thoughts toward us are good and his blessings are bountiful. We need not ever trust in our self or anyone else. The Bible has never asked us to trust in ourselves or the child within us, or the hero inside. If you ever found the child within you ‘he or she’ would be corrupt and you will never find a hero inside of you.
When Jesus returns every eye will see him. All they who pierced him will look upon him to see the price that God paid for the redemption of mankind and none of us will be exempt. All of us who pierced him will see him because it was our sins that nailed him there.
It was on an old rugged cross that God provided us with a savior when he offered up his only begotten Son. Jesus died a brutal death in our place shedding his own innocent blood. There is absolutely nothing innocent about our blood: No innocent child within; no hero, no way of self help.
Our hope is in the Lord.
