Today, Israel marks the 26th anniversary of slain Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. Rabin was assassinated by a fanatic right-wing terrorist after he spoke at a peace rally in Tel Aviv in 1995. It shook the entire nation at the time, the shockwaves of which can still be felt today. Rabin’s death is a reminder of the importance of protecting ourselves from extremist ideologies, and not taking matters into our own hands. Please pray that as Israel continues to be quite divided, that Israelis would take the time to listen to one another and seek peace between ourselves. Please also pray that Rabin’s work would not be in vain, and that Israelis would seek viable solutions to living in peace with one another.
