Day 3 Where Jesus walked...

Day three in Israel was an amazing examination into the places in Galilee where Jesus walked and talked.  A Eucharist on the Mount of Beatitudes, the ancient towns of Chorazin (Matt 11:21), Capernaum (Mark 1:21), the church built over the place where the loaves and fishes were multiplied.  Hearing the reading of the Beatitudes where Jesus taught and looking at the remains of the room where Jesus first healed in Capernaum is beyond words. To see and feel this landscape where Jesus taught gives me a whole new appreciation for how real all of this is for us now.  Nothing is more powerful or more hopeful. Nothing could change our lives more.
