All Womens Weekend

Ok so put 8000 women in the same building and what do you get? Still thinking? Okay so here it is. You get the most awesome, most blessed, most spiritual, most emotional, most loving, most eye opening, most uplifting, best worshiping you have ever seen!! The Extrodinary Womens Conference this past weekend at the Bilo center. I was so blessed to be able to go, at the last minute mind you. Then I had the best time taking my big sister with me. She and I haven't done that in a long time. I look forward to more time with her. It is so easy to drift apart when you have a family to run and things to do. Sometimes even your closest, become the furthest away. Then we had the best time worshiping Friday night with Charles Bilinsgly, and Rachel Lampa, and The sisters from Lord Song. Then laughed and laughed til we cried with Shonda Pierce. Then more amazing worship from NewSong. Everytime I hear A rise my love tears are like a water faucet. Then we got to go back on Saturday. We both went a little later, since we had babies at home that needed mommy first thing. But to hear Angela Thomas, man that was powerful. To fill God in the room with 8000 women, and see the stands almost empty and the alter full. She is an amazing women of God. I loved how she described every women as God's "Baby Girl" . I think I will sign everything that way now. Love Holly God's Baby Girl. I know I am the baby in our family and was a daddy's girl and still am most of the time. But to hear how precious you are to some one so powerful, so mighty, so faithful, and so uplifting. That is an awesome feeling. Then we had a lunch break and I walked around and talked to a lot fo the artist and speakers and writers. Then enjoyed taking pictures and listing to all the other womens blessing they had already gone through, and how thrilled they were to be there. We had more awesome worship with Charles, and more inspiring, God lead speakers that afternoon. Michelle was funny but very right on about life and God leading our lives, and being able to go through the battles with him. God does not take the battles away, he takes us through the battles, and then removes the hurt as we reach heaven. Then Stormie aw Stormie. So soft spoken, so beautiful, so loyal to what God has given her to do with her life. I was so blessed to be given "The power of a praying wife" , last year when I needed it. Praying through any situation is very important. But learning how it's not him, it's me and I needed to pray to be changed. Wouldn't you know that God changed Tim's heart while I was reading this book and he was saved!!!! Now that is power!! Since Saturday night Tim and I are reading her new book, "The power of prayer to change you Marriage." It is already been awesome, and Stormie hits it home in every word. The best part is that it gives Tim and I something to do together. The other awesome book she has is for children, and what does God think when I pray. It really helps out with all those little questions when children are trying to learn. Over all it was an amazing weekend. I look forward to next year!! Thank you to Jennifer, and Sande for the last minute tickets. To God for allowing my sister and I to go and spend this special time together and everything I learned and drew closer to him. Blessings to you all.
