I had a great experience yesterday. With the backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, I spend the day at a Spiritual Retreat Center just outside of Calgary. A good friend and I took the day away from computers, cells phones, office phones, and church responsibilities; we unplugged and enjoyed a day with God at a King’s Fold Retreat Center. So in front of a blazing fire, with my Bible, my journal, a book I’m reading during Lent, and the silence of a cool winter day overlooking the beautiful Ghost River, I spent time with the creator of it all and His presence was palpable.
Once the craziness of this weekend is over, I plan on getting to a few blog posts I’ve been thinking about and mulling over.
Those kind of moments are great. It’s to bad that we don’t make time for those moments more often. We used to live on an acreage south of Stony. It was the dream location for moments like those. That is the one thing I missed about that place.
