Be Courageous


This weekend I went on a lovely retreat with the women of Resonate Church at a lake house on the border of Georgia and South Carolina. We listened to amazing speakers through a video streaming of the IF Gathering led by Jennie Allen in Austin, TX. I didn't expect to hear much from God this weekend but I am amazed at how clearly I heard his desire for me to return to Him. 


Inspiring books written by the IF speakers that are now on my must-read list.


  
There is something beautiful about separating yourself from the city life to hear God's word. 


   
I don't know why but staring at large bodies of water always makes me 100% sure there is a God. 

    
Beautiful house! 

 
 Learned how to play Five Crowns during some down time. 


Overall, I am glad I spent time reading His word and talking to some of His most faithful servants in this world. So inspired to start living my life for God. It's time for me to be STRONG and COURAGEOUS! I need to stop being idle and take that first step towards action. It's time for this little mustard seed to do great things. 

Joshua 1:8-9 
Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
