When I was asked to speak at a women’s retreat, I wasn’t sure what to expect.
I didn’t realize that in preparing to deliver two one-hour sessions, I would find words and ideas that only God could inspire.
I didn’t realize that I would heal parts of my past and move into greater purpose in my own life.
I didn’t realize that to step out of my comfort zone would feel like the most amazing, wonderful thing I have done in a very long time. It felt as if I was divinely positioned, because truth be known, I am more of an introvert. Public speaking should terrify me. But, God.
I didn’t realize that my voice, my message could have such an impact. Each word that I carefully wrote in each personalized journal was heartfelt and thought out for weeks. The impact of the contemplation, the tears, the awakening, oh my what a gift. I pray each precious soul recalls their healing, their freedom, their purpose.
I didn’t realize a lot…But, God knew.
In the waiting. In the doubts. In the fears. In the uncertainty. He was there.
I’m so very glad I said yes.
What is He calling you to? I hope you say yes…
