W. SCOTT LAMB: Carmen Fowler LaBerge: When peace is in your hopes but not on your calendar

But let us also remember that for the Jews, there's nothing nascent about Israel, it's as old as the promise of God to Abraham. For many in the midst of the conflict peace is something that is in their hopes but not on their calendars. So, today, let us not imagine that we have the answers or that we know the timeline. Let us simply pray for the peace of Jerusalem as those who live and labor there consider what it will take to make peace.
