A Quiet Place


Scripture makes many references to Jesus getting away from the crowds during his Galilean ministry.  While there are several caves around the lake...this one does truly stand out.  

Local legend says that this is the cave to which the Gospels refer.  

I can't say for sure that Jesus ever prayed in this cave.  But we scaled the rocky, steep trail and sat there ourselves.  The feeling is amazing, and the surroundings are surely of the sort that Jesus experienced in his times of quiet prayer.  The cave faces the Galilee, with an incredible view.
