in His arms again
Youth Leaders' Retreat 2008
I'm glad that I decided to go for the Leaders' Retreat despite nearly pulling out at the last minute due to a submission the day after I got back from it. I thank God for a time of spiritual refreshment, and it has been such a long time since I spent any time at all with Him, but at the retreat, I found myself waking up at 53oam each morning, and just spending an hour and a half sitting and enjoying the sounds of nature, enjoying the view of the sea and the trees, and just basking in the majesty of God's creation while talking to Him, and I found that I missed that. I enjoyed the time of fellowship with the people dear to me, as well as Ministry time. I've missed having that because I'm usually not around for the Teens and Youth camps, and it was really a time for me to reconnect with God, and to just find and rest in His embrace again, and to hear what He had to say to me through Zhengqin and Grace who prayed for me. All in all, it was a good 3 days spent sitting at God's feet, and my prayer for myself is that I'll continue doing so even in this fast-paced society, and that I'll find a niche where I can hide out from the craziness of this world and just to talk to God and to wait upon Him and to listen to what He has to say to me.
