LHOP

I went to Livingstone House of Prayer tonight. It was pretty chil. I have never just went anywhere alone like that. Going places alone can be really awkward or weird. Like going out a sit down restuarant by yourself, or bowling. You try to do those types of things with people. Fellowship, and friendships. But this instance was not that type of fellowship deal. This was just me and God, coming together at some place I've never been before and talking a while. It was really nice. I generally have my favorite spots for praying and reading my bible. They both are in Elizabeth City. They both are outside. 1) it's December and it's cold. 2) I'm in Virginia on break. I'm really big on emphasizing that GOd is everywhere. He isn't contained to temples or church's or anything like that at all. He is all powerful and moves and speaks when and as He chooses. But I'm tired of distractions, and I wanted an outlet to pray and read my bible. I get to this place, and at first I thought it was going to be this huge building. Or at least an old brick building. Like some old school church that's got candles burning everywhere, and dude's in cloaks. :)   I dunno. hahaha. But it wasn't. Basicly it's just a room that's a part of a brick building where Nuns used to stay. It's now run and owned by a group of church's next to one of the church's. Just chil I guess. You go in this one little room with the door unlocked and you find like 40 chairs at the most. There's paintings and art on the wall with scripture and words of praise and reflection on them. There is background music playing, and I hear they even have live worship music at times. Just chil. Nothing spectacular. All barriers broken. Nothin to fantasize about from the eye's view here. JUST WHAT I WANTED!
I sit down and pray for while. Open up my bible and read. Pray some more and read. PRay. Leave. This place is perfect for getting away from distractions and really focusing. Probably gonna go back tomorrow. There was only one other person there while I was there. He left after twenty minutes. I wasn't greeted or anything. And really I didn't want to be. I wasn't there for fellowship. I'm not a wilderness guy, but that doesn't mean I can't get away somehow for time with God.
