Present Joys

“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

I spent the past couple days with my bible study group at a cabin by a lake, and it was truly one of the nicest weekends I’ve ever had. Yesterday was a perfect day:

  • 9:30am: wake up
  • 11am: brunch (I fried 18 eggs)
  • 12pm: hymn singing
  • 1pm: sledding (with some injuries)
  • 4pm: deep conversation + knitting
  • 6pm: dinner
  • 7pm: games
  • 9pm: prayer
  • 11:30pm: more hymn singing
  • 1:30am: sleep

A few weekends ago, I spent the weekend in beautiful Hocking Hills at Camp Akita participating in and helping out with this “Creativity Retreat” event that my uncle runs. I met new people, got a fresh perspective on creativity and problem-solving, and washed out a bunch of wine glasses. Good times.
