TOFW

I spent the whole day with friends at the Time Out For Women event in Indy.
It was wonderful.  I got just the spiritual boost I needed.  We heard from some amazing people and I was reminded of my many blessings.  I was reminded that I can choose what to make of life.  I can choose to enjoy it, to make the most of it, and to be happy. 
 
One speaker in particular, Laurel Christensen, talked about fear.  She talked about how our fears hold us back from blessings and experiences that can enrich our life.  She said something that I loved and want to remember,
 "When you stop praying for what your heart truly wants, your heart stops wanting what you weren't willing to pray for." 
 Laurel reminded us that God wants us to be happy and we can always go to Him with our desires and our fears.
 
I loved having a little escape from my routine this weekend.  It was refreshing and fun!
