week end musings

our church had a retreat in central Pa from friday evening until sunday noon.

 this was our view from the back deck.

the leaves were really lovely, though not at their peak.

**********************

Encountering Jesus

In the realities of life,

and in the middle of hard things,

Jesus whispers...

'Sh-h-h, I'm here to deliver you.'

Giving up my alabaster box,

Am I willing to break the seal?

Give up my dreams?

To love genuinely is costly -

and to risk criticism and scorn...

to be misunderstood.

Worship

We are created to worship.

Worship is a connection to God.

To worship the Creator rather than the created.

This was our teaching in a nutshell -

a lot to think about and apply to my life!

...blessedness!
