Living Loved!

Just got back last night from a wonderful weekend at Miller Ranch Retreat Center. It was our annual Fall ladies retreat at SAF. Our theme was Live Loud, Laugh Often, Love Much! And that we did! It was a weekend filled with laughter, soooo much laughter, being reminded how intentional we need to be with our relationships, and how well we are loved by God and when we grasp hold of that perfect love we love others well. We love well when we continue to dip into the "loving well." Beth Moore, via video sessions spoke to us on the subject of loving well, and of course it was filled with her distinct humor. She was hilarious and inspiring. Such a good time of teaching.

The laughter was shared through dramas, skits, games, line dancing to the "Hip Hop Hoedown" (should seen all us older ladies giving that one a whirl), and the most hilarious Talent (of course that part of it was inspiring, thank the Lord for them) or Lack-there-of Talent Show. Oh Goodness Me it was such fun!

The weather was so perfect and the grounds was filled with His presence. A very special time of communion at the foot of the cross was shared together Sunday morning at sunrise. The Lord was so good to send each one of us a special word. Good times with old friends and making new friends.

The Lord provided me with so many special ladies to gather around me and help put it together and hold me up in prayer. I am so grateful to them and Him. Through the experience of working hand in hand with them, God has taught me a great lesson about His love and His purpose for me and for others.

The entire weekend was filled with such memorable and inspiring glimpses of God's heart and messages to all of us. Lives were changed and healed and set on course.

I am so grateful for your grace sweet Jesus. Your love overwhelms me.
