Repetition is the key

The other day I was hanging out at my bosses house. Within the normal banter of conversation my boss started saying "repetition is the key" over and over again to bug his wife. I laughed and laugh because he kept saying it and it didn't phase her one bit.

Well the next day on my routine hike, I decided that I should spend 15 minutes in silence with God. (A challenge that ham is going to take part in daily next fall within a small group- I felt like I needed to do that that day)
I don't know how to be silent before The Lord, I just think about what it means, am I being silent, if I'm thinking about being silent, how do you stop thinking?

Have you ever experience this? The long random train of thoughts when all you are trying to do is be silent. Then within the "silence" attributes of God started flowing. God is so much! And he loved us at our worst state. After all of this. A phase started going in my head over and over again "focus on serving here at camp" I need to to get off of my selfish confusion of what The Lord is doing in my romantic life, and remember what goes on at camp! Lives are changed here, camp is a special place. And I am letting it become a normal 9-5 office job. It's not that at all! I am in ministry and I am becoming numb to it by being hanged up on guys. I still need to sort that out, but it can't be number one priority.

So this seems so spiritual and a deep moving moment and in a sense it was, but soon after the phase "repetition is the key" went through my head over and over again, obviously the phase is right! :)
