You meet someone for the first time and it feels like you have known them forever. I think this gives a glimpse of what Heaven will be like for us. A closeness which is immediate, intimate and without reservation.  In this retreat setting, with a handful of ladies, heavenly sisterhood has happened. Hugs, excitement to connect and a sameness of spirit. This is just the first few hours. I am waiting expectantly for the miracles of tomorrow. It says where 2 or more are gathered. Well, the power of the Spirit that indwells in this group is so present, so real. What power will be released tomorrow!

This time is filled with urgency. You can feel it in the Spirit, in the air, in the world. The connections made here are needed for us to go forth in His name and wage war for the lost. To declare "Not today satan, not here and not them"

If we live like we truly believe that billion of souls are at stake then we should have our battle gear on, sword drawn and figth.
