"Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east, and gather you from the west. I will say to the north: "Give them up!" 

And to the south: "Do not hold them back." Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth-everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made" 

Isaiah 43:5-7

Created, formed, made and called by Gods name. That is Israel.

Happy 64th birthday.
