She Speaks: a conference for women who desire to speak and write in ministry
I'm exhausted. And exhilarated. I just returned late last night from She Speaks, a conference hosted by Proverbs 31 Ministries. Six hundred women from all over the nation and five countries poured in to connect with others who have the same dream: to speak and/or write in ministry.Mom bloggers all over the web are blogging about it: Like Chatting at the Sky and Mocha with Linda and Boo Mama.
I'm with the team of Proverbs 31 Ministries, but the new girl on the block, so in a sense I both worked this conference (teaching and evaluating), but I also attended it.
I fully attended on Saturday night when Jennifer Rothschild stepped up to the podium and began to speak. Her words were simple and profound. . . and they hurt, while they nudged and prompted me to action. I'm sure she had no idea that God was choosing to use her words to remind Suzie Eller of truth, or to make me look at some areas where God would like to step in--again.
I left that session and went straight into the prayer room. I found my name, prayed over by the team. They had prayed over all 600 women, and it sat next to a beautifully written page that simply said, "Jehovah Nissi" - He is my banner. And the scripture underneath showed that God was faithful to talk to his girls, to be a banner even if the message wasn't something you really wanted to hear, but he had been whispering in your ear for a long time.
So this after I'm transformed, challenged, humbled, and excited to connect all over again with the beautiful ladies of Christian Momlogic.
We have some really great plans for Christian Momlogic. Stay tuned for introductions of some new team members and some exciting, fun new things coming up.

- Thanks, Dana. I needed it. I was exhausted and didn't even know it. Sometimes we just have to get away and immersed so we can hear God. That's exactly where I was.
