At first, I honestly thought that "Love" as the theme of this retreat would be cliche, but I'm so glad it was the theme, because God showed me a lot. I can't say that I'll be entirely loving now, nor can I say that I will be able to forgive and love my enemies, but I will try much much more. Hate does consume our lives, when it becomes our only focus. But when it is love, we in turn bless others.
Today my dad really wanted me to come home. I had a lot of work, but I gave in because truthfully I do treasure my family greater. I came home because I love them, and I want to spend time with them. I'm going to spend tonight really enjoying family presence, loving and spending time with them.
You & your family make me :)
