Neither of us slept really well. That's a given. First night in a new place. No room darkening shades or material to keep out the moon and filtered light through the wooden mini blinds. Not the comfy bed I have. But I did bring my own pillows. Yup. Always do that.
We woke up with enough time to get up and get going so we wouldn't miss brunch. Jennifer was faster at this process then me. I probably needed an attitude adjustment due to my lack of being rested, as I was begging for room service that didn't exist. LOL!
Breakfast was yummy!!! Eggs cooked how you liked, sausage patties, grits, and warm peaches. I had never had warm peaches. They are canned peaches with a bit of cinnamon and sugar. You are supposed to eat them over biscuits, but since I don't eat wheat (at least as much lies within me) I just had a bowl of warm peaches. Quite yummy! Warm peaches are good. You must try them!
We then toured the property...walked down to the river, listened to the brook, gazed at the pretty water in which you could see all the way to the bottom, watched the reflection of the trees in the water, watched birds, hiked over rocks, gazed up at the tall -VERY TALL - trees, listened to the breeze rustle through, and just relaxed.

We then called it a night, grateful for the relaxing experience we had had thus far, safety on our trip, encouragement we both received in sharing and hoped that we both would get a better nights rest the second night.
...Don't forget, Jennifer took most all of the photo's on the trip, so I will insert more pictures later.
There are SO many nuggets that I want to be able to take away from your post..... WOW.. the 15 lies.... God knows how many of those I have believed to be true.... I feel as if you have challenged not only me but each and eveyone who reads this to do some soul searching and see what kind of lies that we (I) believe to be true.... I want to give this some serious prayerful thought and with the Lords help write down 15 lies that I need to bury and let go...... Letting go I imagine to be the hardest part.. But that is where my heart is.
ReplyDeleteI really want others to be able to see God's unconditional love in me..... I also want them to FEEl that LOVE in me....
Words just don't seem to do justice in saying THANK YOU for sharing your heart once again~~
I know God has a plan!!
Love you more and more each day!!
Because of Christ!!
