Into a confused world exhausted by unexpected and wearying cares and suffocated by heartrending choices, comes this comforting book moving softly like a sweet breath of fresh, exhilarating air. Written for those who hunger and thirst to truly "experience" God at a deeper level, this book acts as a kind, loving mentor and guide, inviting all who read to "come" and sit in silence, completely alone with God. This companionable volume takes the reader through a personal spiritual retreat experience from beginning to end: one day or even days long. It moves from the beginning to the end of retreat time, answering questions, removing roadblocks, deftly and ever gently paving the way to the Holy of Holies where the God of love will always be waiting, saying "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Matthew 11:28, 29
