For over a month now….I’ve been preparing my heart to speak at a ladies retreat at my friend Betsy’s church. Well, in that time….satan has been chasing after me trying everything in his power to keep my mouth shut! He really should know…..that ain’t happening! I may be wounded and war-torn by tomorrow night…but I’m speaking! π
The theme for the event is Galatians 5:22-23 (The Fruit of the Spirit). I’ve been asked to teach on Friday night and on Saturday. I never take this lightly! I truly want to honor God with every word that comes out of my mouth. This past week’s sickness junk is still lingering around and I’m in need of some serious prayer. All of my gunky infection stuff has moved to my chest and I feel like I’m never going feel normal again. It’s just annoying. I really need to feel and sound good again. No one wants to hear Barky McBarkus as their guest speaker!
The retreat is an overnighter…..and I want to be able to hang with the other ladies. You know I’m all about a party (especially a pj party!!). If you have a second…..shoot up a little word to THE ONE who knows just what I need. This is a great opportunity for God to work. I hear these gals haven’t done anything fun like this for themselves ever. So, since I’m the one bringing the message….I’d really love for it to ROCK!
Thanks bloggy friends. You’re all (all 5 of ya) a sweet encouragement to me.
Look out Zenas Baptist Ladies….Here I come! π
