Women of Faith Conference

I went to the Women of Faith conference this past weekend with my buzin cuzin, Sarah.  We had a blast!  Next year I want to take a whole group of women with me!  It was a fabulous weekend filled with messages of hope and love from God's Word by nationally known speakers & authors, powerful worship music, halarious drama sketches, and sharing the love of God in the midst of 13,000 sisters in Christ!

The sessions were so good; I took 16 pages of notes.  I won't attempt to reiterate all of them here, but I did want to share a few quotes and things.


Quote by Sheila Walsh, "You have not lived an unloved moment in your life."  -Wow, that is powerful!  I guess I have always known that to be true, but when she said it, it just hit me!

"God loves broken people.  We cannot fix ourselves.  We can trust God and give our life over to Him and He may still choose to not "fix" us or our problems.  So we must look through the window of our brokenness for the face of God.  He makes his power perfect in our weakness."

"He will cover you with his feathers, He will shelter you with His wings.  His faithful promises will be your shelter and armour."  -from Psalm 91

"In this world you will have trouble.  But take heart.  I have overcome the world."  -John 16:33
"We are not the good news = Jesus is!"


And so much more.  I encourage all you ladies to mark your calendars...the Indianapolis Women of Faith event for 2012 is the weekend of Aug. 24-25!
