Sea Of Galilee #JesusBoat #Manofgalilee

I traveled to Israel this summer and it was an amazing trip.  One of the amazing things we did, and we did many amazing things, was sail the Sea of Galilee.  Sailing the Sea of Galilee conjured up images of Our Lord, Jesus and his apostles quietly sailing and fishing in the Galilee Sea.  Now the Sea of Galilee is a lake, not a sea..

It was In the Sea of Galilee that a boat, dating back to the 1 century AD, was found.  This boat is being called the Jesus Boat.  OK, they can’t  prove that this boat was Jesus’  boat  but they can’t prove it  wasn’t!  

The Jesus Boat was  discovered in 1981.  Pulled out from the Sea of Galilee and taken to a museum that just happened to be in close vicinity. The museum’s name is  ”Man in the Galilee Museum”.    How amazing, that the Sea of Galilee would cough up an ancient boat which is now on display  in a museum called, Man in the Galilee Museum.  Did you know that Jesus was called the Man of Galilee.  Could be  a big coincidence but not in my book.

Yes, we sailed the sea of Galilee.  A sailing experience that could never be duplicated anyplace in the world.    And I got to do it  with my favorite girl, my daughter.  As for walking on the waters…that’s something that only The Man from Galilee could do.
