Insight week 2

So this week as I was reading in Matthew, Mark, and Luke. I saw or noticed that Christ taught near water or on a boat. That was interesting to me so I looked up "water and the New Testament" one of the things I found was,"The ocean, lakefronts and riversides often provide space for peace and a sense of the sacred." The thought that came to me was, that makes sense. Even though Christ knew his job and was committed to that job, even loved it, I could imagine that it got overwhelming at times and being out on a calming sea away from the crowd must have been nice. I then thought about motherhood (yes it was a jump) and I consider me as motherish. We/I love my job, are committed to it and wouldn't trade it but it sure can be overwhelming sometimes and we all could use a "boat" to go out a ways and be calm.
