Last week the Refuge at La Foret hosted a Sacred Earth, Sacred Soul retreat led by Celtic theologian, John Philip Newell. Near La Foret’s historic chapel a tree grows in a bending twist, followed by a vertical shoot without branches on her west side. A sister tree bows between her eastern limbs. I first noticed them as we exited the chapel in grounded silence following a contemplative service on Friday evening. The chapel gates led us toward the sun setting in the west across a valley framing Pikes Peak. Though we did not yet know one another, the group wordlessly paused in unison to witness the earth’s sacred story, a collective exhale.
Yes, wrestling with God can be exhausting- I'm so glad you are finding ways of renewing your spirit, and to me, your writing helps me to renew my spirit as well. I am grateful.

Ah thanks, I am grateful for the way to share.
