At times in the past year, the darkness of despair and near hopelessness has crept over Jerusalem and several parts of Israel. For the people who live there, always listening for the sirens of incoming rockets, then grabbing their children and rushing into bomb shelters, I’ve wondered if they have nearly given up that Israel will ever again be a peaceful, joyful place to live and raise their family. For the families of hostages still held, this year has seemed like an endless nightmare. For the spouses and children of those who have been called to put on the IDF uniform, take up weapons and go to war defending their little nation, each day they hold their breath and pray that their soldier will be safe.
