"There ain't no high like the Most High!"

Beth said this Saturday during the SLI conference in Atlanta. I have so much to post about my trip and about what I learned. It was amazing! So, I'll be posting about it here and there.

I wanted to already share it, but had to spend the night getting our house in order, after chaotic packing and getting back into town really, really late last night. I had to wake up at 4am, just to finish up some work for school. So, I'm tired...and ready to watch Tori and Dean.

I left for Woodstock bright and early in the midst of heavy rain, thunder, and lightening. I had my ruffled umbrella, a Starbucks toffee nut latte, my tote bag packed with a notebook, a new pack of pens, several different Bible's (all different versions), my tickets, and I listened to Travis Live to get ready for an incredible time of worship. The traffic was majorly backed up when I got to Woodstock...it was insane. And somehow, I found the women from my church, and walked in with a friend from college, even surrounded by 9,000 women. I didn't get any good pictures of Beth or Travis...I am sad about that.




This is a commissioning statement that we said at the end of the conference. My partner was a woman I never met...I was actually surrounded by people that I didn't know, but I got to know them and really enjoyed talking to them.

My Dear Sister

If Christ is Your Savior
You are the dwelling place
Of His own Spirit
You have it IN YOU
to be secure.
Every day of your life
You have a choice to make
You can live in your old defeat
Or you can turn from your unbelief
And choose life
Make up your mind
To put off the old you
And put on the new you.
Never, ever, ever forget
That the Lord is your security.
He will keep your foot
From being caught in a trap.
He will take care of you
To your very last breath.
Now, leave this place
And go out into the world
And act like a person
Who knows she’s dearly loved.
You were born to be exceptional.
So, Girlfriend, go forth
And walk worthy of your calling.
You are clothed in strength and dignity!
Now unto Him
Who can keep you from falling
Be glory and majesty
Power and authority
Through Jesus Christ our Lord
Now and forever more
Amen.

So Long, Insecurity!

That really sums a lot up! :)

Proverbs 3:5
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
