Unshakeable

So, Nate and Sam and I went on a sweet retreat this past weekend. We went to North Bend State Park in WVA, and were super blessed to have great weather for our time away.

How cool it was to be with long time friends. And to...

...constantly build fires...
...drink coffee non-stop...
...fart incessantly...
...encourage each other...
...hike through the valleys...
...skip stones on the creek...
...build a dam (small, and not efficient, but still fun to make)...
...play sequence all night...
...consume vast quanities of chips and salsa...
...make creative concoctions with Bisquik...
...challenge each other...

it was great. each of us shared a little of how we felt God was leading us and it was cool, because Sam led the way on thursday night talking about being men who hold on to the unshakable kingdom. And that pretty much took the rest of the conversations from there on out...good stuff.

another thing I noticed when I went out and about quietly and laid on a rock, is that trees reaching into the sky kind of look like veins stretching through the blue.
