Welcoming myself into November... :)
Spiritual
retreats have been my essential part of my spiritual life. I have
this desired which; I need time away from other people and hectic
daily routine and as circumstances would have it extended weekends provided me
with experiences of solitude and spiritual refreshment. Some people need
retreat to seek for spiritual renewal while others to heal physically and
mentally. But, many desire a retreat specific to their religious faith. Some
simply looking to escape for a few days into a life unfettered with the daily
demands of work, home and family.. and that is one part of me. Through the
retreats I have found these times to be of tremendous boon to my spiritual life
and essential to my relationship with God at times.
Next few
days, I’ll be joining our CCR church ministry (my parish) to BTRC for CCR
family retreat. The reason I need this year end retreat was my feeling of
spiritual dryness, an inability to spark fire in my heart and lack of
engagement with those closed with me. Further, I need some insight from God and
some direction in order to restore my morale and keep me in the struggle.
Lately, I was spiritually and emotionally weary and I needed a word from my
Saviour.
The day after
the retreat, again I’ll involve in Life in the Spirit Seminar for 100++ of
confirmation student in other parish. I believed this retreat would help me and
my team in ministering this seminar. I thanked God for the good health and
grace upon us. Thank you for the Public Holiday too… J
