Signed books from authors that are inspiring.
...and what I will surely get to eat in Heaven every single day when I get there!
Ann Voskamp was such an eloquent speaker and she is such a very lovely lady. It was an honor to have met her at the conference and to get my copy of her book signed by her. You can find Ann's blog at: A Holy Experience
After a few minutes of searching I finally found my name in the quiet and spirit filled prayer room. Yes, I had to keep on reminding myself at the conference that "God IS with me. You can do this!"
I finally met a blogger friend in person! Rachelle is the sweetest person you'd ever meet and I look forward to getting to know her better! I'm so glad to have met you at She Speaks, Rachelle!
My roommate, Joanna is a speaker/writer. I know that the Lord was stirring her heart slowly, as He was mine too, at the conference. Maybe we'll get Joanna a blog set up soon!? ;)
God spoke so much to my heart this past weekend while I was at She Speaks. I didn't just learn about writing. I learned about giving Him my gift of writing, letting go, letting Him chisel me, having confidence in myself and in my gift, being thankful for every star and every word that flows from my fingertips to your heart and how not to envy someone else's gift that God gave especially to them.
Thanks, Sierra! I did have an awesome time, and the Lord was definitely speaking to me LOUD & CLEAR.
ReplyDeleteThat dessert could convert someone to Jesus in one bite. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteI know, right? It was so nice meeting you at the conference, Jenny. I'm really looking froward to reading 'Save The Date!' A few of my coworkers have read it when nights at the bookstore were dead and they've done nothing but raved about your book over and over again to me. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you had such a blessed time!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kristin! =)
