The Lord tells us to "seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." Serenity in calamity is experienced when you are spiritually right. Although the storms of life rage on, you can live in the eye and be calm. We Christians call this walking in resurrection power, or walking in the Spirit. We know that the most amazing things will begin to happen in your life when the power of darkness is broken. You will be in command, not a victim of circumstance. Give it a try. Come on retreat. You'll never look back. Jo-Anne, Still Life Retreat We are told not to worry about life in Mathew 6:32-34; that we must prioritize our spiritual well-being.

I believe that today where there is so much unrest in our country and world there is much need to come away and rest with the Lord. Be still and know that God loves you. A retreat away from EVERYTHING helps one to remember that WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. God Bless You, Sister Brunilda Thank you for your interest as I think it’s a great idea.
