Good morning sweet ladies that take the time to come to my blog. Sweet ladies that take the time to write me personal emails. You tell me your life stories and things that you need prayer for. I can not thank you enough. You encourage my day. I am privileged to take you before the throne room of our ALL MIGHTY FATHER!!!! You make me laugh and you also make me cry. This world is hard on women and one thing I know for sure we need each other.
Yesterday as some of you know I went to a Beth Moore conference. She came in and before she started speaking she went to her knees. She bowed her face before our Father and prayed for us and for the message. To be ushered with 300 thousand other ladies to Throne Room of God was breathe taking. Living on the farm I do not visit much with other ladies. I am so grateful that I have my daughters. We are here for each other. Yesterday they were with. I started to have a pity party for myself, because my Momma couldn't be with me, but the Lord reminded me to keep my eyes on the now and not the what if's! I did. I enjoyed holding my girls hands after the simulcast and a friend of mine and my self prayed blessings over my daughters and Emily and Shauna. I have posted about Emily and Shauna before. Some of you adopted them for Christmas this last year. They lost their Momma 2 years ago to cancer. You can't believe what a special time that was.
The message was on Beths's new book called "So Long, Insecurity you've been a bad friend to us". It spoke to my heart big time. She talked about how we all have insecurities. It is true in my life and I want to change. I want all that the Lord has for my me. I do not want to hinder the Holy Spirit from doing the work He wants to do in my life. It was a refreshing time to be ministered to.
The singing was incredible. I loved it. Beth had all 300 thousand women hold hands across the globe in each city and building that was represented. She talked about if we lived in truth what an example to the world we all could be for the work of Christ. I long for that ladies. I want to be that for my husband, children and grandchildren. I will be going through the book with my girls, with Bible in hand. We will sit before the Father as he shows us those areas he wants to take and reshape in our lives. I am excited!
Anyway here we go!! I will have a drawing that will go until Saturday May 1. It will be fun to see who will be the blessed lady!!!
Just leave a comment and we will put you in the bowl, well not you in the bowl your comment. Okay so that was lame! My girls can honestly say their Momma is a little silly on some days. Well, maybe a lot silly.
If you blog about this let me know and that is a second vote!
Blessings!!!!! Wish you all could have been there!
P.S. If some of you that come to my blog want the Jesus I have and you have never accepted His Gift of Salvation, I would love to talk to you. Just email me anytime. Some say salvation is free. It is a gift, but it will be with a price. Your life for His. I truly care about everyone who stumbles across my blog!!!
I read this book and it was life changing. I'm so glad you got to go to the conference. I just love Beth Moore. You don't have to put me in the drawing because I have already read the book from our public library, but thank you anyway...I know it will bless some one!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful giveaway! I am glad you got to attend the conference. It sounds like it was an awesome, inspiring time.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Cheryl
Oh ~I love Best. I listen to her podcast each Monday morning. I love her to pieces. Please add my to your drawing.

Oh Linda, you are goimg tomake my cry today! I love you so much because you never stray from loving the Lord! I think this giveaway is beautiful! I would love to win but whoever is blessed to winthis book will have a real treat in their hands! Blessings! Anne
ReplyDeleteMiss Linda, you have no idea how much you bless and encourage me every time I read your posts! Thank you so much! Kathy L
ReplyDeleteoops~ I love Beth!
ReplyDeleteOh, I admire Beth Moore so much. I really hope I get to see her someday (on this side of heaven, that is). What a precious, precious time with your girls and our Savior. What a gift it is to be one of His girls!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a wonderful conference. Thank you for such a generous giveaway and your inspiration. I
ReplyDeleteThank you for this opportunity! Beth Moore is an excellent speaker & author. I love her teachings. Please enter me in your contest & thank you again!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog posts, Linda, and frequently send them to my grown daughter for her encouragement. I love your heart for the Lord. I would love to win the Beth book, but will also be happy for whoever the blessed lady is to have her name drawn. Thank you for this most generous gift.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you.
Jean
Where have I been? I've never heard of Beth Moore. Sounds like you had a wonderful time at the conference w/all your girls. Thank-you for your generous spirit. I would love to read a book like this as admittedly I can be insecure even at my age.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't able to attend the simulcast. As far as I know, I don't think any of the other churches in my area were participating. In any case, I love Beth Moore's Bible studies. I've done five of them. They are really encouraging to me. Every once in awhiel she also says something that just make me howl with laughter :) :) :) I haven't done the Esther Bible study yet. That one I think will be especially good. I also heard Beth Moore had a Bible study on "Revelation" too. I always enjoy reading your blog posts. I feel the same way. I like it when people take the time to let me know they're listening/reading :) :) :)
ReplyDeletePraising God that you were able to meet with her, I love Beth Moore's writings too, yes it is a time when we as Godly women need to stick together, we need to pray one for another, and be the kind of women Lois was, look at the man she raised...Thank you for praying for us, and I thank you for being able to pray for you.
ReplyDeleteLots of Hugs, Barbara from

Linda ~ Thank you for the inspiration that you share! I do not have any books by Beth Moore...but would love to be entered into your give-away. Yesterday sounds like a day of blessings! Such a blessing for you and your daughters! Hugs to you!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda I just love to read y0ur blog,it is so inspiring and I am a christian also and know the Father as my savior. God Bless and enter my name in the book drawing, Thanks Juanita
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great time - there are no words to describe what it is like to have thousands of people praying and worshiping at the same time, I attended one of Joel Osteens speeches at Madison square Garden in NYC and the worship alone brought tears to my and my daughters eyes, the holy spirit was all over us. Please put me in the drawing.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! Praise God for the simulcast yesterday. I attended with 2 of my adult daughters and a friend. To say it was enriching and life changing seems like a huge understatement!!
ReplyDeleteI ended up buying the book so no need to enter my name into the drawing but ladies, can I just tell you that Beth Moore teaches from the raw vulnerabilty of her own life challenges with a transparency that is God given and fully annointed by the Holy Spirit. If you win this book I know you will be blessed beyond measure!!! I've done the Ester; It's Tough Being a Woman study which was FABULOUS. Lots to learn! I am a changed woman.
God Bless you richly Linda! I wish I had thought to buy 2 books so I could give one away too :) Your blog is inspirational. Keep up the good work of our Lord. How wonderful to know we were at the SAME teaching along with the other 300K ladies across the country in 869 locations. It's mind blowing for sure. But our God is able if we say Yes, Lord Yes!!

Hi Linda. How nice for you, your daughters and friends that you were able to go to the Beth Moore conference. A while back on Heart to Heart with Holley, Holley Gerth did a series of devotions on Out of In-security. When she began, she didn't know about Beth Moore's book, "So Long Insecurity...". But Holley put it on the reading list with some other excellent books later. Here's the webpage with the first of 21 postings.
ReplyDeletehttp://blog.dayspring.com/out-of-insecurity/page/7/. There are some excellent writing excercises to help anyone work on their security issues.I would love to read to book, please sign me up.
Hi! This is my first visit to your blog. How exciting to have opportunity to see Beth Moore! I love your blog look and your music!
ReplyDeleteI am going to add you to my bloglist.
<3 Kathy
Hi Linda,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. Beth Moore has had an impact on my life, too.
Thank you for honoring me by following my blog.
Yours is on my list of favorite blogs that I like to keep up with.
A Good Sunday to you, Linda!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a blessed time with your daughters and friends at the conference!
I have been wanting to read some of Beth Moore's books, but have not had the opportunity to do so ~ I would love to win one of her books. I will put your drawing on my sidebar for others to see!
Blessings!
Thank you for the opportunity.. book sounds wonderful.

What a lovely giveaway! I love Beth's Bible studies--they are always so life changing. So glad you had a wonderful time with your daughters.
ReplyDeleteI would like to read this book. The enemy of our souls keeps us from being all we can be with our insecurities. I know I struggle with this and keep myself from relationships that otherwise would be so blessed....thanks.
ReplyDeleteYou are such an inspiration, I look forward to receiving your messages. I have to tell you Saturday morning I got up, usually pretty early. My husband usually makes the rounds every morning to check on the animals. 8 ducks (two are small), 2 little geese, 8 little chicks, 4 hens and 2 roosters. One we have pinned up he lost his little mate. So it was kind of strange he was following around our momma duck. Any way back to the story, I usually am dealing with children in the mornings, so I dont usually get dressed until they are off to school. But Saturday you inspired me to put on my flip flops and through a jacket over my t-shirt and capris (that is my night clothes). And check things out outside with my husband. Kind of nice since we dont get to do that to often. You please have a blessed day and know that you are a blessing to so many.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Angie
Oh, I just love Beth- I will never forget the first video I saw of her getting down on her knees. Such a picture of humility! Have a blessed day- you certainly bless mine! Angela
ReplyDeleteLinda...You are so inspiring. Sounds like you were touched by the conference and the book looks like a good read for any woman with a title like that. Thank you for the generous giveaway.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Dee
I'd love to win Beth Moore's book Thanks

Dear Linda, my very first bible study when I came to know Christ as my Savior, was a Beth Moore study on the fruit of the Spirit and it was life changing! This book is one that I think would do amazing things in my life. Thank you for this opportunity to enter in a drawing. I will be posting it on my blog.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I am so glad you and your girls got to spend some quality time at the Beth Moore conference. Isn't Beth awesome?! I have done several of her Bible studies and have several of her books and this one is on my wish list!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all you do for others!
God Bless!

Hey Linda, I see you have been blessed by our Heavenly Father through His faithful and giving teacher of His word, Beth Moore. I have done several of her studies and each time I think the next one just couldn't be any better. LOL Beth has such a driving force to to bring His word to us. He leads her and she follows. What a team!!! I found your post tonight on MJF. I believe that God lets us as Christians, cross each others paths for a reason. I am truly blessed by your faithful following. You have been blessed, and you are a blessing. With Love in Christ

Linda: You are such a blessing to us all! I had never even heard of Beth Moore before SPFH! I am so glad you were able to share it with your daughters, and I'm saddened that your dear sweet mama couldn't share it with you too! One day she will! In everything, give thanks, GrandmaSoucie
ReplyDeleteThis book looks awesome! I could certainly use a lift! Thank you for sharing this. I will definitely look into this book further!

ReplyDeleteLillian
What a blessing you are to your girls and the women who read your blog! I've been following you on MJ Farm, first a embroidery pattern for free and now a book give away? You are too generous! I too have come to love Beth Moore after just recently finishing a Bible study of hers, Jesus, the One and Only! She has a knack for getting you to go into the word deeper than you otherwise would. Thank you so much for doing this. Blessings! acairnsmom

ReplyDeleteHere is another entry that came in yesterday.
ReplyDeleteDear Linda,
Please put me in for the Beth Moore drawing.
Thank you for sharing Clarice with us. My grandmother is still alive and will be 92 this August.
I don't think she did alot of sewing, but her mother did. I have alot of my great-grandmother's quilts.
She didn't do alot of fancy stitches like Clarice, but I love having them. And looking at all the vintage
fabrics.
Thank you Clarice for teaching us ladies through Linda. Your love for sewing is inspiring to me and my
9 year old daughter. It was wonderful for you to share your quilts with us. I don't currently use aprons
much, but I'm looking forward to sewing and using aprons in the future. I love hearing about what they
used and did in the good olde days. Thanks for being a wonderful inspiration to us all.
Blessings,
Michelle
