Women of Faith

I was so blessed this weekend to attend the Women of Faith Tour this year at the Pinnacle Bank Arena. When it was announced that they were coming I desperately wanted to go but did not see how that would be possible. I didn't want to go alone and the tickets were a little expensive. I prayed about it...many times.

As always, God provided a way for that to happen. It was a blessing to be sure.

Here's the biggest thing...Women of Faith...THEY ARE JUST LIKE US!!! They make mistakes, they fail, they struggle to always do the best things, they live lives just like us, they struggle with the same daily issues that all the rest of us struggle with. They are really just like us.

That's probably because anyone woman can truly be a woman of faith. Not all of us can be in the ministry like they are, leading us to be our own women of faith. But all you have to do be a woman of faith is have faith. And it's even ok if somedays, you can have more faith than others. Even if sometimes, you don't think your faith is strong is enough.

The last day and a half are ones that I will keep in my soul forever. These beautiful women had the faith in us to stand up in front of thousands of people and share their lives with us. They shared their very real, not always perfect lives with us. They shared with us how to be better women of faith, knowing that we too have made mistakes, knowing that we WILL make mistakes, and knowing that being a true woman of faith makes all of that okay.

Thank you to my beautiful friend and mentor Heather who has been with me every step of my walk of faith. Being there with you is something I will cherish always.
