The night before I travelled to Bet Lahem

Ok,  it is ten to one in the morning.  I have about seven hours before I leave for Luton Airport and my flight for Israel. I can't sleep!

My thoughts are all over the place however I can't help feeling slightly nervous about my trip to Bethlehem.
In Israel,  three teenagers are missing.  The Israeli authorities are blaming the Palestinians and are doing searches in places where I will be visiting. In Hebron there are about 3000 troops shutting down the city in a search for these kids. Will this mean security issues at Bethlehem?  I don't know. 

What I do know is that I wholeheartedly feel that this is a trip I am meant to take and that somewhere in this mixed up country,  this supposedly Holy Land,  there is a lesson for me to learn.  Something that will affect my future by making me view things differently.

Thanks for listening.
