WorshipGod '08

Wow...that's the first thing that comes to mind when I think of this year's worship conference. It's already been over a week since we left for the conference, but my head is still reeling from all that I heard/learned. =)
If I haven't already told you yet, Donald Whitney's seminar on "Praying with the Psalmist" was the highlight seminar of the conference for me! I had never heard him speak; or seen him, for that matter (he looks like Sean Connery), and he was so engaging and helpful. Honestly throughout his message, I was thinking 'yeah this is great. I should put this into practice when I get hom'...knowing that I most likely would not try this little exercise when I got home, due to my sinful, lazy heart. But at the end of his message, Don asked us to find a Psalm (he gave us about 20 seconds) and we were going to put all this into practice because "I'm sure some of you were thinking, 'This is great, I should really start doing this...' but we're going to practice it right now!" I was SO excited! This was so very helpful!
I really enjoyed hanging out with my homegroup on Wednesday (all day) at the Harbor and outside Fort McHenry. ;) That time of talking, laughing, taking pictures, encouraging one another, sharing words/scriptures, praying for one another...Ahhh, I love it! Such a precious time with my spiritual family! Here are a few pictures from the weekend. I will post some 'stories' later. ;)
