womens retreat 2009

well, a little over a week ago I went on a women's retreat with our church. it was awesome! i have never been on a retreat, and i must say i was very impressed. the hotel/conference center we stayed at was a part of Southestern Baptist Seminary and it was amazing! they took very good care of me and the other 90 or so women that were there. Our speaker was also great! I definitely learned a lot to take home with me from them and also our breakout sessions. The scripture we focused on was Matthew 11:28-30 "finding rest." i certainly came out of that retreat feeling well rested. It was definitely not physically b/c i don't think i got more than 5 hrs a sleep each night -- what do you expect from a group of women?? we like to chat/play games. :) it was spiritually. and I will continue to pray that i keep the conviction that i felt during that weekend to keep me going in the right direction.
