My Weekend

  I had such a wonderful weekend at the Retreat!  Many good things came out of it for me. 

   We left Friday afternoon and got back Sunday afternoon.  There were 4 speaking sessions. 1 on Friday. 2 on Saterday and 1 on Sunday.  We had some free time on Saturday.  between the first session and our hike at 4.  that was a wonderful walk. but I forgot my camera!  I was so bummed!!!!     . 

  So between the sessions (In which God seemed to be talking to ME alot!) and the wonderful food and the wonderful company, I had a great time! 

  One thing that really touched my heart was the queit prayer room.  That was a room where you went and on the wall was white paper.  You took a pen and traced your hand and put a prayer request in it. Then you go to the other hands and put your hand on it and pray for the other requests.  What a privelage it was for me to put my hand on other hands and pray for other women.  I enjoyed that experience more than I can express.   I wish I had written them down to take home with me.

  It was a very wonderful weekend for me, but I was happy to be home with my family. I missed them greatly!  I called home on Saturday night and I talked to my son Toney. I asked him what he was doing:

 

(Toney)  Waiting

(Me)  for what sweetie?

(Toney) For you to come home to me

 

 

Oh that was sad! If I had a car, i might just have gone home right then! LOL!

That prayer room sounds so beautiful. I love when I'm reading in my Bible or listening to a song or hearing a sermon and all of a sudden it is like God is talking straight to ME. Those are holy precious moments.
Love, Dawn
