Call the Exterminator!

luke 10 ttread on serpents scorpions worthy christian devotions

Since our move to the Negev Desert in Israel, we’ve had the privilege of meeting many fascinating and somewhat disturbing desert species, some of which have unfortunately had to meet the exterminator. One of these is the scorpion. Scorpions are commonplace here. They can often even be found in the house and they aren’t easy to kill. These little creatures have a knack for survival.

Fight it!

For the past few days our family has been fighting off various viruses, and I’m hoping we’re finally coming to the end of this bout of sickness.
