retreat.debrief

The retreat went pretty well, though unspectacular.

The Lord spoke strongly me of things that I needed to be reminded of. Things having to do with his heart toward me, and his heart throughout history. I have forgotten how much he loves me, and thus my Christianity has become variations on duty. It's so hard for me to trust God as he is, as he presents himself because he is not tame-able, not safe in the sense of guaranteeing comfort in this life. He is wild, even unpredictable at times. This aspect of God's heart sometimes repels me, and other times attracts me.

I will try and post some pictures from the retreat soon . . .
