忽視貧窮
在以色列許多城市的街道上充滿了矛盾。巨大的財富充斥在街上,但貧窮卻傾倒在路邊。從以賽亞時代到如今,富人就常常忽視有需要的人。所得的稅收用於美化環境,卻仍然有許多人忍饑挨餓。
以賽亞書3:13-23
耶和華起來辯論,站著審判眾民。耶和華必審問他民中的長老,和首領,說,吃盡葡萄園果子的,就是你們。向貧窮人所奪的,都在你們家中。主萬軍之耶和華說,你們為何壓制我的百姓,搓磨貧窮人的臉呢?耶和華又說,因為錫安的女子狂傲,行走挺項,賣弄眼目,俏步徐行,腳下玎鐺。所以主必使錫安的女子頭長禿瘡,耶和華又使她們赤露下體。到那日,主必除掉她們華美的腳釧,髮網,月牙圈。耳環,手鐲,蒙臉的帕子。華冠,足鏈,華帶,香盒,符囊。戒指,鼻環。吉服,外套,雲肩,荷包。手鏡,細麻衣,裹頭巾,蒙身的帕子。
祈求以色列的領導能夠有上帝般的憐恤對待窮人和有需要的人。

British POWS
Sarah was part of a January 1945 death march of 1200 women from a concentration camp to the Baltic coast with her mother and sister. Only 300 remained alive when they reached Gross Golmkau. Sarah, urged by her mother escaped to a nearby barn. She was found by a British POW working at the farm and smuggled into his prison camp Stalag 20B. The prisoners hid her and took turns nursing her back to health. When they were to be transferred to Germany they found shelter for her with a local woman. She was the only survivor in her family
