Soul Retreats: Picture This



Memories are precious. Even those stored during bad times contain the lacy crystals of hope and joy, and they remind you of God's tender hand encouraging and delivering you in your time of need. 
Other memories remind you of good times with images you want to keep forever - a loved one's smile, children as they grow, places you've been, and people you've known. 

Take a break from the busyness of your day and immerse yourself in your precious memories... and as you move along your trail of memories, whisper a word of thanksgiving to God for each person and place God has used to decorate your life. 

Laugh and cry, smile and sigh as you wander through. The release of your emotions will help your tension dissipate and restore to you a sense of happiness and well-being. 

As you take your walk down through memory lane, let God show you how, by His grace, you have made a difference and have received a bounty of gifts from his hands.
