Sabbath rest

Today I spent the day at Camp Vick, part of New York’s Outdoor Ministry, an American Baptist camp.

It was scheduled to be a day of prayer for clergy in the Living Waters Association. There were four pastors that came out, and it was a beautiful day. There was no structure to the day, other than dinner at five. We were free to wander the camp, explore the woods, and spend time in prayer.

It was a very enjoyable day. We all need a time of Sabbath. If you’re not taking the time, I greatly encourage it. Get outside with a Bible or a spiritual book, read, relax, and enjoy some time alone with God.

You will feel peace.
