RETREAT-ed


















Hey guys!
man, i just got back from my retreat! it was gooooorgeous! oofff! we left monday morning for a two hour drive to the other side of the island and then embarked on our two hour hike to this completely secluded house in the middle of the island by Calla Rajata. It was amazing! No ELECTRICITY! man, it was so nice. We had devos every morning and that was pretty much it. Every night was ended by amazing camp fires and fun worship songs! haha good times.. but it was completely a time of relaxation and being able to get into "romantic time" with Jesus... which is much needed :) It is so nice to be able to go out, even without your Bible sometimes, and just sit with Him. Include him in anything and everything. Whether its putting butter on your toast or watching the sunrise... 
These last four days were just that. A time of hilarious fellowship. sun tanning, swimming, coffe with sunrise, coffee with sunset, amazing food by Paul ( chicken curry, pork chops ...), coffee, volleyball, soccer, cards, laughing, thumb war, naps, laughing .. coffee :)
God is so good, and he loves us so much!

Look at these pictures. They are flawless yea? Now read Genesis 1-2 , flawless yea? 
Exactly! The LORD has intended us to have this ALL THE TIME! we just jack it all up with our busy body city slicker lifestyle. But its okay, cuz we screw it all up all the time and He STILL loves us .. his thoughts towards us are more than the number of grains in the sand!!!! trip out on that!   

PSALM 139 ... read it puess :)

relaxed and loved, 
anna
