There were three main speakers at the conference. The first speaker spoke about facing an uncertain future with faith. She shared with us that every problem, disappointment, catastrophic event is an opportunity to express faith in a Sovereign God and His perfect plan. This was such an encouraging message. She spoke of our Sovereign God who has chosen to give us His Word, reveal events He has planned for the future, and how He orchestrates world events to fulfill His Word. She also shared how God uses godless rulers to complete His plans. Cyrus, in Isaiah, was one of them. Also our Sovereign God guarantee's His promises. (Jeannie Vogel)
The second speaker we had is the mother of eighteen children. Ten living and eight are in heaven. She is only 47 years old. She spoke on the imprint we leave on the future generations. She gave us each a small ball of clay in a small plastic bag to help us to remember that we are clay and each one of us leaves our own imprint in the world. While she was speaking I kept shaping my little ball of clay. At the end of the message it was no longer a ball shape but a square, flat, shape. The thought she left with us was to choose to live today as if someone's tomorrow depended on it. What a precious lady. (September McCarthy)
The final speaker presented herself in such a way you wanted to laugh and also cry. She shared impacting a hurting world with faith. She spoke about Rahab and how she became a believer and it was through Rahab came the line of David. She also shared God's attributes and brought out how faithful God is, how He loves us, and we need to obey Him. (Debbie Scott)
The last speaker left us stunned. Her words were so powerful that instead of doing what they usually do at the end they did different and the conference ended early. It is great when You can feel the Holy Spirit working and that God is where you are.
I am so thankful that I could attend this conference.
