My sister in law tried the upside down braid and bow on me after trying to on my sister.

Time Out For Women

The other day I had the wonderful experience in going to time out for women! It's was great to be able to go out with my friends and hang out together as well as listening to some inspiring talks from some amazing speakers. The theme for this year was "higher" ... We need go start to think higher, believe higher and live higher.

We had topics like option overload, where it talked about sometimes we feel like we have too many options to choose from and other times we don't have many if any options to choose from which in both situations can be very overwhelming. We learnt that in life we have 3 options.

1. We can choose to believe we have a choice

Sometimes people think I don't have a choice in the matter and leave it as that and just do what ever the thing is and yes in some cases because of the choice of others it limits your choice to a very few or even none. There are also times where you think you do not have the choices there but really you do its just up to you to set yourself free.

2. We can choose to surrender

I'll Surrender they said and just let what every happens happen! not quite it means that we willingly do something, we trust the Lord. We Surrender our soul/Spirit unto God.

3. We can choose to show up 

Take responsibility. take charge and conquer 

A question was asked

What word or phase can I say to myself every morning to give me strength and worth...

I came up with this...

I am a Daughter of God and I am of worth.

What would you say?

We talked about the power of pray and how we can use it for anything but also how some people don't use it as they don't think that they can before that are not members or that they are not worthy enough but the thing is it doesn't matter who you are or where you come from we can all say a pray at any time, at any place.

"We don't pray because we are worthy, we pray because we need help" 

We were talking about change and that everyone has the ability to change. over time and help of the spirit people can change. Time + Spirit = can change true colours. 

We always hear we need to endure to the end but its not endure to the end but endure to our end means to become like Christ. to give our all, to give our all and when we don't have anything left that's when the Lord comes in and makes up for the rest. He is on our side and wants us to succeed.
