Renovation

Come and see what our God has done, what awesome miracles he performs for people!
Psalm 66:5 
 
There are times when I seem to be cruising on autopilot.  I go from appointment to appointment, trying to help or, at least, bring some perspective to those who need.  Yet, outside of that, I get stuck in a routine.  I get home from work, change clothes, chase Woody Bear around for a bit, get something to eat and drink, sit in my chair and zone out.  In getting stuck in that routine, I miss a LOT of what God has done and is doing!  So it's time for one of those renovation interventions.
 
I am taking next week, Holy Week, as vacation so that I may focus more on contemplating what God has done and what He is doing.  I call it a Contemplative's Retreat because I will be doing a lot of thinking, pondering, and observing.
