Joined my fellowship camp this year and spent my weekend in a secluded camp site on Lantau Island. I was hesitant before deciding to join the camp because I could never sleep well in beds other than my own. Surprisingly, I slept pretty well (although only for 5-6 hours) on Sat., and wasn’t too tired for Sun. service. I even have enough energy to do some running after getting home! Thankful for your prayers.
It must have been a long time since I was able to leave behind work and be absolutely disconnected for a couple of days, without the many worldly distractions, God seemed closer and relationships with b/s didn’t seem as distant.
Did a little reflection during the camp, I realized that my daily devotions are habitual and without substance. I now yearn for a deeper relationship with God, to understand more clearly His purpose in me. May this yearning not be diluted by the inevitable distractions in life.
