Second Day wore me out

Today we went and visited the Mount of Beautitudes, Capernaum, Tarsi, saw the 2000 year old boat and took a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. I was deeply moved at the Mount of Beautitudes. I was able to read the sermon on the mount(actually a plain, perhaps Luke got it right) and pray there. I was sorta disappointed, because they had fenced off the area where I really wanted to go, the actual spot where they believe Jesus spoke from. Our next stop took us to the place where it is believed that Jesus fed the five thousand. They have a rock right under the altar which is the supposed rock for which Jesus blessed and passed the fishes and five loaves. A beautiful mosaic depicts it right before the altar (only shows 2 fishes and 4 loaves of bread. They say that Jesus is the fifth loaf(Bread of Life)). We then went to Capernaum and saw Peter's house and the Synagouge for which Jesus did a lot of teaching from. These visits really give a great reference for texts for which i have read and studied. We had lunch and we ate St. Peter's fish. I ate the pizza, because the fish was way to bony for me. We stopped by the place where Jesus met the Demoniac and then we went to the exhibit about the 2000 year old boat. That was fascinating. To cap our day, we took a boat ride across the Sea of Galilee. What a sight and ride. I was extremely wore out. I have not had a "Monday (Preachers Sabbath)" this week. I went right to bed. I slept thru dinner and morning prayers. I really needed the rest. Was able to write 2 sermons today and hopefully i can knock out some homework while I am here. Tomorrow is a new adventure and a new experience. I cannot wait until i can get these pictures on here. Until Next Time, RevCEGJr
