How To Take A Spiritual Retreat - Part Two

I hope you find this helpful and encouraging.

I'm not sure why this time I needed more drastic measures to experience some measure of refreshing... (Join me for the rest of this post on Sunday, January 26th, at Woman to Woman Ministries, where each Sunday I share a bit of Sunday Soul Food!)
