Over 2000 years ago, Jesus was born in this same place. He came down to this world to die for you and for me. What kind of love is this? Thank you God and Jesus that You loved us this much!

This is what took place here:-

* Jesus got baptized and the Holy Spirit came down in a form of a white dove
* Sehin got baptized and a white duck came :-)

This is what took place here:-

* Jesus spoke to the multitudes from Peter's boat
* Jesus calmed the storm
* Jesus walked upon the water
* Jesus appeared here after the resurrection
* and Sehin had a lot of fun here and even enjoyed fish for lunch from the Sea of Galilee, probably the same type of fish Jesus had

After I saw the weather forecast for Jerusalem and surrounding cities to be sunny and in the 80's for the entire time, I am there, I decided to up my game in the hat and glasses department. My packing included:-
~~ Bible - I am excited to see the places I have been reading about in the Bible for decades
~~Journal - to document every possible experience & reflection
~~Post-it-note - to write prayers to place on the Wall
~~A copy of my book to give to one lucky local person as I always do when I travel abroad
~~Flat shoes, OK this is a new territory for me; I am more of a high-heels girl
~~Business books to read on the long trip
See you when I get back!

Michelangelo was barely 26 years old, but his arthritis caused him to walk with a stoop and feeble shuffle. His every move was a painful ordeal. Yet Michelangelo labored for two years on a piece of art that we still admire centuries later, the statue of David.
What is your arthritis? Don't let it keep you from working on your legacy.

If you were a flower, would the gardener say you were in full bloom? Is there something you've always wanted to do but you kept on postponing? This is the perfect time to spring into full bloom (your best self).

Just as the bee creates honey from the same flower that the spider saps its poison, we get to choose what we get out of life based on our attitude.

Failure is not fatal; it's the down payment you put for success.
