Live A Life Of Love
This blog is all about what I experienced in our retreat of my Senior Highschool life.
Our retreat was at Cappuccino's Retreat Center in Lipa, Batangas. I didn't expect how beautiful the place was. Then, we went around the place and we have a quite fun with the whole 4th year batch.
After that, we have our session with the speaker. The speaker told us about God's love. When I heard the question, "What on Earth am I here for?", I was liked thinking deeply about it. Then the speaker said a verse, "Only God can give you meaning in your life.(Jeremiah 29:11)". I felt that the question on my mind was answered. That through God, you will know what is your purpose on this world. And through Him, you will feel what TRUE LOVE is.
One of the activities that day was sharing our life's story. Each of us had a paper and there were questions/phrases that were needed to answer. One of the phrase was,"The thing that is important to you". I felt a little bit sad because I remembered my grandmother. One time, I was in my province, my cousin, grandmother, and I, went to a mall to buy some groceries and souvenirs for my cousin. We bought clothes, accessories, and food. When we went to the shoe section, my grandmother asked me, "Do you want a new pair of shoes?" then I said,"No Ma but my shoes were little old so I'll just repair it.". Then after that, my grandmother tried to find some shoes. I thought it was for my cousin but it was for me. I just thank my grandmother because I was very shy for what she did for me. Then after they know my story, some were shocked, some felt sad for me. Next day, the speaker told us about love and relationships. I've learned that TRUE LOVE waits. And we should know that God will always love us.
Well, this is my retreat experiences. Hope that you liked it and have the same experiences that I've experienced in our retreat. THANK YOU FOR READING!
