I just returned from a weekend away at the captivating retreat. It was such a good break to stop and think. My greatest realization of the weekend is that I need to break agreements I have made with the dark side. How many times a day will I need to reject these thoughts?:
1. I am ugly
2. I am fat
3. I am not chosen
4. I will always be alone
5. God will only come for the lovely.
I believe if I could permanently break my agreement with those, I would be living a different life. I just need to find a way to stay in touch with this message. I had beautiful vision this weekend that I pray to see fulfilled.

hazel...those are not agreements worth keeping; i know because i've made similar ones myself. and the process of becoming free truly is a different life. i'm so thankful you are seeing them for what they are, and that you've been given a vision of beauty- of the life we are meant to live. there's a piece of our liturgy that i love...we "walk in newness of life"!
Oh, I'm glad the weekend gave you something tangible to walk away with. I'll be in the fight with you my friend.
hmmm... beautifully inspiring words. truth to claim also. glad it was good weekend for you, friend.
