As a young man, Simeon was raised on the northern part of the Sea of Galilee; following his dad’s career, he fished for a living. But shortly after becoming married, a strange, but very powerful man, who spoke with the authority of God, touched something in his heart that was so powerful that he was willing to lay down this known life, and follow this Authority that could envelope such fullness that Simeon could feel within.
