Stories of adventure and love
Last weekend 29 people went away for the weekend a old farm house, just outside Stirling. It was a great time to hang out with people, have a lot of fun, enjoy the wonderful and beautiful surroundings, and learn more about God and the live He call us to.
For me some of the highlights were:
- Great food cooked by Flic - and a willing group of helpers to chop and wash up. Good job everyone - who needs a rota is everyone is wiling to serve each other.
- Conversations around the log fire.
- Praying for people at the end of Saturday morning, seeing the Lord touch, heal and encourage us.
- Seeing the desire to step forward with God, an openness to Him. Just so encouraging.
- Malcolm’s film clip from Lord of Rings - encouraging us to take a step beyond where we have gone before, into something new.
- Personally, I found that it is true (again!) that we you give you end up receive more. To talk about God’s love, is to receive God’s love, and to be changed God’s love. I came quite tense and stressed, and that love melted something inside me.
- What were your highlights? What did God do in you?
I had such a strong sense that God was there orchestrating everything. The whole weekend felt so calm and I was blown away by how much people showed love and care towards one another. Was such a privilege to pray with people too, and to see God move. I came away feeling so refreshed and at peace. Thank you Lord!
