Feeling upbeat

Just went for a wonderful "Choice Weekend". That is a retreat that will really help you to open up, trust people, build your relationships better.. etc. I have been touched in my mind, and heart through this retreat.

In fact, I really believe it's a great complement to the Life/Youth in the Spirit Seminar Camps which give you a 'spiritual' boost,.. this is like a soul-boost. haha... the soul is the mind, our thoughts, and our heart - our feelings. The Choice weekend helps us see through these areas, breaks down walls, and helps us to open up to realise what is important in our life!

So i'm pretty upbeat - despite an unimaginably busy week ahead... with commitments at OLPS Youth, YAM, OLPS Ensemble, String Quartet GIG, YISS prep day all in one week..

This excerpt from Os Hillman touches me this week.. :

When the road is dark and tough, God will guide and protect you. When you feel overwhelmed with loneliness, the Lord is close beside you. When your heart is asking hard questions and you feel beaten down, God will sustain you. We don’t need to live in fear, for God is always with you. He is willing to comfort and protect you. He guides you through every mountain and valley of life. He is your true Leader/Shepherd. And the more you trust him as Lord, the more you will experience the wonder of having a Shepherd."

"The Lord is My Shepherd, I shall not be in want..."
