Here we are at the Houston, Women of Faith Conference. It was a blessing to get to go. Amanda and Willow, I love you girls.
So, I know you are scratching your head. This picture is wrong on so many levels. There were soooooo many women at this conference that all the men's rooms were turned into "Women's" restrooms. Love it!
The typical face shot.
The girls again.
I bet you are are wondering what I learned while I was there. Here is goes in a nut shell. WE all have gifts. Some we are aware of, and some we have yet to discover. I don't think I ever thought about "my gift" ( of Art, Worship, friendship, ect)as something that I actually GIVE away, completely give away. Think about this when we give a birthday gift to someone we don't say well you can keep 50% of it- we give it all to them, and we don't ask for it back. We gave it away. I struggle with confidence over my gifts, like I'm not good enough, doubt, ect. LIES! When the Lord gives us gifts he knows that we are going to give them away. For example, Worship, we give it away, we bless others, we lead others into worship...and then we give it away again and again and again. Friendship, we give that gift away daily because we are called to love, and its a free gift from our Father. Don't hold back your gifts, they are meant for the blessings of others. much love.
