Greetings!

 

Today, I went to a tea at a friend of a friend’s church. Actually, I feel like she’s my friend too. I have been to two retreats that she has hosted, and this is my second tea at her church, so I think it’s safe to say that she is at least a very good associate.

 

We were determined to make it on time…especially since last year, we were a little late and they were well into their third or fourth cup of tea by the time we got there. Let me tell you…using a GPS, although useful when you don’t know where you’re going, is not the easiest method of finding a destination. It’s hard to keep following the GPS when you know that you are going in the opposite direction of where you want to go, but not knowing enough to go against what the little voice in the box is telling you. I think we probably went about 15 minutes out of the way before finally arriving pretty close to being on time…at least we got there before our friend.

The woman who spoke was…refreshing. She didn’t give a sermon per se, but she definitely used scripture, and the things she said encouraged me to keep letting God’s light shine through me. We ate scones, sandwiches, cookies, and all kinds of tea. It was nice having tea, meeting new people, and just enjoying a really beautiful afternoon. I left there feeling really glad I went…just thankful to God for allowing me to spend time with Him.

I even received confirmation of a message I have been working on…awesome.

Until next time…

Be blessed!
