I recently spent an AMAZING weekend with some AWESOME ladies at a retreat.
And let me just say...if you have never been on a ladies retreat it should be on every woman's bucket list! The love, laugher and friendship that builds from it is astounding. If you'd like to know a good one to go to contact me and I'll hook you up! I had been on retreats before so I pretty much knew what to expect. I knew that when I got home the devil would be waiting on my door step, waiting to break me, waiting for me to doubt and fear, waiting for me to back down from the commitments Id just made to my Heavenly Father. But I wont back down. God is moving in my home, I feel it in my heart and I see it in both of my sweet kids. He is here and He is teaching my family how to show & share His love. The kids had also just got back from an event called CIY Believe....another bucket list MUST if you haven't attended already :) I guarantee it will bless your socks off! And like I said when we got home I knew we would be challenged to keep the fire we had each felt over the weekend going & growing. But I didn't care! Because the one thing that I knew beyond a doubt was that when I got back home....nothing would have changed. That's right! We came home to the same circumstances we had left. Actually we came home to smellier circumstances because my son( Lord bless him ) had forgotten to take the trash out the morning we left. 4 days old and in a warm house does not a pleasant homecoming make. Eew! So why was I happy to get home to our same, but now very smelly life? My life did not change....But my heart did. My home did not change...But my heart did. My bills did not change....But my heart did. My troubles did not change...But my heart did. I didn't care what I was walking into when I got back. I knew everything would be the same as I left it, except the Hope which I hold in my heart is so strong I can feel My Savior walking every step with me.
