We are so grateful for the way God met with us this week in our retreat! It was such a joy to meet new women and to reconnect with old friends. I loved seeing you all laughing, sharing,and enjoying the time together! May we hold onto hope as we serve God!
Psalm 27 (Excerpts) The Lord is my light and my salvation –
whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life –
of whom shall I be afraid?
One thing I ask from the Lord,
this only do I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
to gaze on the beauty of the Lord
and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble
he will keep me safe in his dwelling;
he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent
and set me high upon a rock. I remain confident of this:
I will see the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord.
Psalm 57: I cry out to God Most High, to God, who fulfills His purpose for me. He sends from heaven and saves me, rebuking those who hotly pursue me; God sends his love and his faithfulness.
Psalm 71: 14 But as for me, I will always have hope. I will praise you more and more. My mouth will tell of your righteousness. of your, of your salvation all day long, though I know not it’s measure.
I will come and proclaim your mighty acts, O Sovereign Lord;
I will proclaim your righteousness yours alone.
Since my youth, O God, you have taught me,
and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds.
Even when I am old and gray,
do not forsake me, O god,
till I declare your power to the next generation,
your might to all who are to come.
Psalm 138:8 The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me. Your love, O Lord, endures forever- do not abandon the work of your hands.
“Dear Lord, Thank you for what You did in the retreat this week! We are in awe of how You worked in each of our hearts… and how You drew us together. May we hold onto Your hope and let go of the things that keep us from hoping in You. May we take our place in Your plan to evangelize the world and to serve You!”
