NEW SEASON!!!
I have been on a 2 week vacation and its been amazing..... I didn't want to leave. I WAS EXPERIENCING CRAZY FEELINGS.. I was feeling an overwhelming sense of love and separation anxiety from the Teen Challenge ladies. So the first few days was actually hard to not think about them and enjoy..then the Lord helped me to let go and RELAX...ahhhh and relax I did, as well as shop, sleep in, stay up late with my hubby and go go go... This is the first time we planned to come back 5 days early and just hang out at home...and that was a total GOD thing..that was the best part to be HOME in our own bed and just be quiet and relax and read... GREAT VACATION. The absolute best part was the BRAVE womens conference at my church... I have been praying for something like this for about 5 years or so.
Our guest speaker was a pastor from hilltop tacoma church. Pastor Tai Mambea. A Holy spirit filled woman of God. What a GREAT message. Alot of it was confirmation as to what I feel the Lord is speaking to my heart. Ephesians chapter one... Praying that the eyes of my heart be opened that I would KNOW the hope of his calling in my life...I pray this over my daughters and son but not over myself...God said to KEEP FIGHTING...in the spirit...do not be weary in well doing ...dont faint ...keep believing..BE BRAVE COURAGEOUS... I loved hearing the testimonies of the ladies from my church...the honesty and transparency was so powerful, thats what a testimony is... telling the story of CHRIST transforming a life... To stand before a crowd and tell the yucky stuff the stuff that brought shame and disgrace and tell how you are no longer in bondage to it..that is powerful to me..In my weakness YOU are made strong...beautiful. The whole weekend I strongly felt the presence of the Lord...He is doing something new in this body...HEALING us all from insecurities, vulnerabilities and fears...addictions hurts habits and hang ups.. Its a NEw beginning, a time for us all to come out of hiding and GET REAL...We are not perfect, no one is...thats why we need a savior... There is no good in me its only the Lord... More tomorrow...Gotta go, husband is calling me..Good night...
