The Roar of the Flight…

We were scheduled to leave

tomorrow for the

Holy Land.

Plans have been delayed.

Yes, I am disappointed,

but I will trust in Him Who calls me.

I pray you are blessed from a previous poem post.

I’ve added a few photos to enhance your journey:)

“The Holy Land,

The Promise Land,

The Walk of Jesus.

Mt. Arbel, Galilee, Israel – Jesus would have come this way to the Sea.

The slope of Mount Olives,

The climb up Masada,

View overlooking the Dead Sea from Masada

The crossing the Jordan,

The circling of Jericho.

View from Jericho. “Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted…command these stones to become loves of bread.” Matthew 4:1-4

The heights of Mount Herman,

Mount Hermon in the northern limits of Galilee. Also known as the most likely “high” mountain of the Mount of Transfiguration. Matthew 17:1-13 “His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became white as light.”

The view from Mount Carmel,

View from Mount Carmel

The sailing upon the Sea.

Dancing on the Sea of Galilee!

The covenant meal on Mount Scopes,

The battle for the Holy Mount.

Jerusalem

The delight of the City,

Shopping in the Market of Jerusalem:)

The warmth of the sun,

The steps to climb,

one by one.

The steps of ascent – Jesus would have climbed these steps.

The sand on the horizon,

The calm of the waves.

Tiny shells on the shores of Talgha, the Sea of Galilee in Israel

The roar of the flight,

Night flight home…

Returning to dreams,

in the midst of the night.”

Photo taken while sailing on the Sea of Galilee looking towards Mount Arbel. “It is believed to be the location where Jesus would have gone to pray for it is walking distance from the Sea of Galilee, and its vantage point of more than 1000 feet overlooking the lake.”quote from “The King’s Highway – Jesus Revealed in Psalm 119” 

“And after He had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by Himself to pray.” Matthew 14:23 (ESV)
