Night of worship with Darlene Zschech

Today is my last day of my mini vacation in B'ham. I had a great walk/run this morning at the Heardmont Park off of highway 119! Checked out of my hotel and now at Starbucks on 280 thinking about last night!

As the Hillsong team lead worship I was so moved by the Holy Spirit! He showed me how much the Father loves me and how much He wants me to be using all my gifts for His glory! I am not even sure what that looks like right now. I know some things for sure and some things I am still trying to figure out.

For sure: L.I.F.E ministry, wife, restaurant (for now), mother, grandmother,mother-in-law, prayer warrior to name a few!

Unsure: leader among women ministry, involvement in worship, teaching of younger women, life coaching to name a few!

I am asking for directions and I am sure He will direct my path!

Spring and Birmingham

I am on a mini retreat by myself! I left home yesterday around noon and got to Birmingham before traffic hit 280! I checked in my hotel and changed for a service at Highlands with Darlene Zschech. It was so good. She taught on God's presence and how to stay there! It was directed to worship leadesr but so good for me since I love to teach on God's presence and living life as a worshipper.

Today has been a little lazy.

I found a baseball park with some great walking paths off of Hwy 119! Had a great walk/run and then Milos! To cancel it!

Tonight Hillsong will lead worship at Highlands and I will be there. Now for a bath and a little shopping!

Points from last nights teaching.
Worship to exalt His worth. That's (worth-ship). His vastness is our security! There is nowhere we can go to escape His presence! Ps.139
His indwelling presence is the Holy Spirit working in us!
Feed on the word! If you are not in His word then you are on thin ice.
He's the manifest presence of God. Declare His presence, His goodness, His truth because He is here with us!
1. Beware of becoming familiar. Live in awareness of His presence
2. His presence carries a fragrance. The world wants authentic people and they can smell it! Be a sweet aroma. Make a sweet smelling offering!
3. His presence is great power - so declare it!
