"Deprive your body of necessary fluid, and your body will tell you. Deprive your soul of spiritual water, and your soul will tell you. Dehydrated hearts send desperate messages. Snarling tempers. Waves of worry. Growling mastodons of guilt and fear. You think God wants you to live with these? Hopelessness. Sleeplessness. Loneliness. Resentment. Irritability. Insecurity. These are warnings. Symptoms of a dryness deep within. Treat your soul as you treat your thirst. Take a gulp. Imbibe moisture. Flood your heart with a good swallow of water. Where do you find water for the soul? "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink."

I had a weekend filled with spiritual water. First, a day retreat on Saturday for all of us Stephen Ministers. It was an awesome day and always great to be refreshed and renewed! Second, Sat night was the first team meeting for a new group of couples beginning Teams of Our Lady. Danny and I are the Pilot Couple--which simply means we nourish the team and get them on the road to an awesome journey---as married couples. Third, we had our own TOOL meeting Sunday night with our wonderful team. We had our re commitment ceremony--we're starting our seventh year! The champagne was yummy and the couples on our team are all phenomenal!

The only low part of the weekend is that our little man had fevers and is sick with another ear infection and a cough! I kept him home yesterday from school to rest another day, but he is there today. He has had no fever since late Sunday night.
