Today's blog will be short. Too many laptops at the hotel and no wireless spots left, so I am writing this from my phone.
We celebrated mass in the Elijah chapel in the Church of the Transfiguration on Mt.Tabor. Excitement again comes into play as the disciples want to erect booths to honor Jesus, Elijah, and Moses. Jesus reins them in and tells them that there is a greater mission to be completed. Were they disappointed that they couldn't stay to celebrate this incredible event?
This makes me think about what I do. Is it in God's plan, or is it something that is going to distract me?
Our ride down the mount was also exciting as a cab driver that loves his job gave us a thrill flying down the switchbacks.
We then made our way to the coast, down to Tel Aviv and then ascended into Jerusalem. We walked the streets tonight and can't wait to head out on Monday.
David...sorry I couldn't be your flying partner this time. Did you do ok without me? Really enjoyed seeing all the pictures and reliving the trip. Am praying for all of you and your safe return. Love, Dorothy
