An Appointment With God

I feel like I have an appointment with God.

I'll be spending four days at The Mepkin Abbey, a Trappist monastary of the Order of the Cistercians of the Strict Observance. It will be a much-needed personal retreat; a time of prayer, Scripture reading and contemplation.

Part of me is really looking forward to it. But part of me is dreading the quiet, alone time with the Lord. He'll have my undivided attention.

I need to be honest and say I'd be kind of dreading it too, and yet mixed with that I'd be very hopeful too.

May it be very blessed time for you. Your blog so often blesses me...
