During my summer internship, I had the opportunity to make retreat with the sisters. The theme for the retreat was “Friended by God: A Scriptural Facebook,” inviting us to open ourselves before God. On Facebook, we only allow limited information to be seen publically, but when we friend someone, we allow them a more personal glimpse. Similarly, by reading the Scriptures and spending time in prayer, we accept God’s “friend request” and our connection with Him deepens. We allow God to see a side of us that we don’t show everyone else.
