120 hours. That's how long the "retreat charge" lasts. You know how you're all fired up during a weekend retreat and you leave there on Sunday just ready to change the world. It even lasts most of the following week. You are just completely ready to change your whole life for what He wants. Then the charge wears down. Before you even realize it your back to the things you did before, the things you swore you would never do again. That's where I am now, but this time it's more of a struggle. I really need to fight this time.
I honesly want to follow God's will. I know He is calling me to something big, bigger than ever before, but I'm starting to lose that drive to be completely radical in my faith. I'm not fired up.
Today I'm praying that God will help me retain that fire and find it again new every morning. I need to stay the course.

Hey Patrick, I totally understand what you mean by the "retreat charge" and how after a week or so it's hard to remember how you felt after a retreat.Good luck trying to follow God's will, I know its not easy. I'll be praying for you. Godbless
hey pat
I know what you mean.
i'm having a hard time too
but i'm trying as hard as i can to keep my eye's on god and what he want's me to do in my life. i will be praying for you
Pat, I'm going through the same thing right now. It feels good to know I'm not alone during this confusing and difficult time. Sometimes God's will isn't what we want it to be and it's so hard to just let go but I have to trust that what God wants for me is going to be great, even though at the beginning it looks tough I know that in the end I'll be as happy as could be because I know God would never make me do something that would leave me unhappy in the end. I must Fully Rely On God. Know that I'm praying for you and please pray for me. Thank you. :)

Hi: I was looking for information on cosmetic surgery and can upon your site. I'm working on a site about San Diego plastic surgery and looking for any good facts that I might be able to incorporate into my site to really provide an in-depth information source. After reading your Blog, I found it interesting, but, it wasn't what I was looking for. With that said, I must say I've enjoyed reading it. I bookmarked your blog for the future. Well I'm off again in search for plastic surgery information.
