The story of my boat “Mary of Magdala” in Migdal

After renting a little house in Migdal in 2017 one morning I was reading Mark 3, 9 “So He told his disciples that a small boat should be kept ready for Him…”. In the translation I was reading that morning it said: Prepare for Me a little Boat.

I felt that the Lord was speaking to me and I had joy and peace but I also knew that if this is from the Lord, I will get more confirmation. Some time later I noticed how many people where in the Boat with Peter in John 21 verse 2 and 3 a “Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples where together. Simon Peter said to them, I am going fishing. They said to him, “We are going with you also.”

If you count the people on boat? They were not 12 but 7 disciples. So, I understood it will be a boat for 7 people. I asked my neighbor and looked on the internet but nothing happened. Then I remembered that I had friends in Tiberius- a catholic charismatic community I had known for more than 20 years and they had a boat. I thought I would call them and ask where they bought their boat? They called me back around 30 minutes later and the leader told me that they wanted to give me their boat, because they did not need it anymore and they want to get a bigger one after a while.

Then I understood that this was really from the Lord. Every Friday I offer a boat ride for free. For 2 years we also had regular prayer meeting on the boat on Sunday mornings. Because some of the prayer partners are now not in the land or cannot enter the boat, we now pray on Sunday mornings on Zoom.
