Sunday’s Blessing - 10/25/2025 - Retreat
A retreat doesn’t always mean giving up. In the midst of an intense battle, a strategic retreat can be just what is needed to regroup, restock, and replan. A new assault can then be launched with a rejuvenated force against the enemy.
Our modern culture uses the same word, retreat, to mean a purposeful time of training, team building, and relaxation by going to a neutral location where interruptions and distractions are minimal. When used effectively, these times of pulling away from normal schedules can boost morale and reenergize a team.
Jesus did this regularly in the years spent with His disciples. He tried to show them a major key in living a life dependent on the Creator. We must pull away from our routine life to hear His Spirit speak to our spirit. When done effectively, these timeouts can make a marked difference in the outcome of every situation we face.
Today’s blessing:
May the Lord of the Sabbath help you find rest
So you can learn how to relax
So you will gain perspective of your purpose
And be able to show others how to discover their place
May the God of peace reveal to you The Prince of Peace
So in stressful times you will seek refuge in Him
And allow peace to repel the pestilence
So you can absorb His presence
