I just got back from Kenosee Lake today after our ladies Retreat Weekend. I could say so much about that but I'll try to keep it to a minimum and just point out the highlights. I loved spending time with good friends and laughing and talking and just sharing. I loved that Katie Pippus came for her first year. I feel lucky to have been able to share that 'first' with her. I enjoyed sitting in the hottub. I really appreciated the things that our speakers had to say. Each lady ( Sara Pippus, Susan Roberts & Alicia Krogsgaard) had messages from God to help us grow and to see things in a new way or to be reminded of things we thought we already knew. I appreciated the wonderful prayer group that I got to be a part of. We prayed but we also laughed and we young'uns got wise words to take home with us. It's so nice to share with others. I am so happy to have been able to have a good good laugh at our coffee house ( not too mention wonderful cheesecakes and coffees). Laughter is such a gift.
Among other things, I was reminded that God loves us and I can put my trust in Him. Nobody cares as much as He does and this weekend was a gift from Him. He spoke through those ladies and through my friends. He hugged me through those people and gave me strength and encouragement thru them. I feel full and well prepared for the next part of our journey. Here are a few pictures from the weekend.
