Today I climbed a mountain, and sat there awhile looking down over the valley.
 I do not mean figuratively, I mean literally.



Alyee asked me to hike table rock with her today.
I thought I was in better shape but apparently the back to back injuries and the sloth that I have embraced as almost a cute trait has worn down my strength and stamina.

It was good to talk with Alyee. We really have not had too much time to connect over the last few months, and the last few days have really changed that.

We got to the top of table rock and sat on a low set rock that overlooked the valley to the east.
We talked of life, and Love and what the future held for our lives. We are both looking toward a very unsure time in our lives and know that we have to trust God completely to take care of things.

After our hike we went to the church for Soaking Prayer.
Soaking Prayer is just a time where a small group of people sit down with you alone and pray about what is going on.
 I went for just more direction and confirmation toward the next few months and years of my life.
I sat through the session feeling just as confused if not more so than I was before getting there.
It was not until the end of the session that things got a bit more interesting.
Some emotional things that I have been really holding on to came out and it is painful to think that it is still in my life.
I have made so much progress, and it hurts to know that It is still a problem.

This couple praying for me suggested Plumbline. I had heard of it before but did not think much of it.
After tonight I told them I would do it.
It is a 3 day intensive retreat that is meant to help you diagnose and heal from emotional hurts and things like that.

This may be part of the answer to the question of "Why am I here in Boise for the next few months?"

It is good to know that there is still a journey to be lead here in Boise.

Sorry that this post is so pensive, but sometimes life is just pensive.

Buenas Noches amigos!
