    This is the third post in my series on quiet time. If you missed the first ones, check them out: Who? and Now comes the toughie: When? Checked you watch lately? Days fly by and they’re over before we can say jackrabbit. It’s hard to find any time when it’s quiet – and stay awake!

    I would have never guessed that 72 hours could change my life so dramatically.  This past weekend I went on a Women’s Walk to Emmaus. I was surrounded by a group of women who were united in one desire: draw closer to God. We laughed, we cried, we laughed until we cried. 72 hours of being submerged in God’s lavish love.
