Boat Ride on The Sea of Galiliee

The day began with a boat ride on the Sea of Galiliee, we stopped and had a bible reading, the guide threw a net over the side of the boat, he said he rarely caught a fish. We told him to put his net over the other side of the boat and he caught 2 fish!
Next we viewed the Jesus Boat, it dates back to the time of Jesus.
Next was a stop at The Mount of Beatitudes, Dr. Crisp asked me if I would read
Matthew 5:1-12, this was a really special time for me.
Next we went to the site where Jesus asked Peter, "Do you love me?" Very emotional time.
We broke for lunch and dined on Peter's fish, Tilapia.
We then went to Capernum where Peter's mother-in-law lived.
We rode all the way around the Sea of Galilee.
We did not have the baptizing because our luggage had not arrived yet.
Good news was announced this afternoon, OUR LUGGAGE should be here tonight.
The ladies on the trip are excited about their "stuff" arriving.
On this first day of the tour I can already feel the change in me.
Thank You Lord for this wonderful experience that is unfolding before me.
