This guy, the one who took me to the Sea of Galilee... |
And made me swim in it, even though it was freezing, because you just should... |
who gets up with me to see sunrises because they are important to me |
who participated in baptizing me in the Jordan River |
and got baptized there himself |
who loves Jerusalem with a passion, |
and can make friends with a doorpost (not that ANYONE in this photo could be described as a doorpost) |
who is looks very young in relation to this 800 year old olive tree |
This one, who has recently been outed as "Brent" |
who sneaks off from the tour group with me so that we can see things that the tour won't see |
and carries the bags when I tire of doing so |
and slathers himself in Dead Sea mud because he's a good sport |
who walks on walls and rests in recesses |
and finds a way to see things that are hard to see (AKA takes me out of my comfort zone) |
who doesn't take himself too seriously |
like I said.... |
HE is my very best friend. |
Thanks be to God for this indescribable gift.
