The Thinker

Where would God go on Retreat?

The Thinker Logo

Where we go on retreat — to walk with us in our journey, and be there when we make space for Him.
Birmingham, because it’s sound.
Vanbrugh! (walking along, singing a song, walking in a Vanbrugh wonderland)
He wouldn’t go anywhere: he has nothing to retreat from
Yorkshire — God’s own county!
He can’t go anywhere; he’s omnipresent!
He would wobble indiscriminately into the lake.
Heaven — I guess his own presence is a pretty good place to be.
Perhaps he could spend some time at the gym and work on his omnipotence.
The Palestinian desert for 40 days and nights …
Perhaps he could take a French chalet, and use the time, peace and solitude to rewrite the Bible, after all he did a botch-job on the first attempt didn’t he? In 2Kings 8:26 he writes: “Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign” Yet in 2Chronicles 22:2 his words are: “Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign”
God wouldn’t go on Retreat. He only does Advances.
Highbury, home of the mighty Arsenal!
Down the pub, with a pint of Old Peculier.
I think He’d head for the first star on the right and straight on ’til morning!
