Simple
13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13
Sometimes it is the simple things that can rejuvenate us. Taking time away from the world to come closer to God can bring some very clear results. There are times over the years when the respite of a camping trip has given me time to reflect on who I am and who God is as the creator of all things. I can reflect on the past, look at the present, and know that the future God has outlined for me has His handprint all over it. I also look at the reflection of life changes where kids are getting older, lives are diverging into their own path, and you can see the influence not only you have on them but God as well. We tend to go through the hustle and bustle of life and can easily lose sight of how God pieces together our lives. You don't have to go on a camping trip to see these things, all you have to do is make time for God, talk to Him, sit in silence with Him, and be thankful for Him and the life you have and all that you have experienced.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
