What great weekend! I had the chance to travel to Pigeon Forge with the Cherokee UMC Praise Band to help lead music and worship for the Holston Conference United Methodist Women's Young Women's retreat. Wow, that title was a lot longer than I expected.
Anyhoo, we spent all day Saturday and a half a day Sunday really just enjoying our time praising God and getting to know more about the Lord's nature. Not only that, but we talked about relinquishing things that hold us back from Him. To top it all off, hearing about God's unending love for us.
Saturday morning was a bit rough...we had some crazy technological problems. Our sound system was not working out as well as we had hoped...and you never get a second chance to make a first impression. However, the ladies of the retreat were so kind, and kept encouraging us, and soon we were able to work out the difficulties with patience, hard thinking, hard work, and a little help from the owner of the system. After that, God took it and ran! We blasted the doors off with fervent worship. It was beautiful. The ladies at the retreat could sing!
All I have to say after the weekend is "How Great is Our God!"
