Hi y’all!!
I have LOVED visiting your blogs this morning!! The best thing about She Speaks for me is all the “girl time.” Don’t misunderstand. You will walk away with the tools you need to fulfill your callings, and you’ll walk away renewed and refreshed in your relationship with God, too! BUT…you’ll also have a wonderful time of fellowship like only we girls know how to do!
I’m a sanguine and so I love people! Often, I’ve found that women stay away or they’re afraid to approach us at conferences. I hope by now you’ve determined that we are different at Proverbs 31. We’ve worked hard to show you our warts and all. Why—to prove that we are just like you. We are women who love the Lord and desire for others to know Him. We are a sisterhood who longs to lock arms with other women as we work together in building the kingdom of God! We love chocolate, which causes us to struggle with our weight. We do not live in a spiritual bubble. We experience disappointments, troubles, and heart-breaks, too. And we are certainly not perfect!! In fact, I believe the only reason God allows me to be a part of the team at Proverbs is because I’m lacking so many of her godly qualities.
So, introduce yourself! I want to know my sisters. That’s why I’ve enjoyed reading your blogs today. It reminds me that I’m not in this fight alone. God has called an army of women around the world to work together for His cause. Isn’t that the coolest thing ever? Only God could have thought of that. In fact, as I look at the sea of women God brings to She Speaks every year, I’m always amazed at how a group of women that large can all be in love with the same Man and not want to keep Him to herself but share Him with the world!!! Again, only something God can do!
By the way, I’m a hugger too. So get ready to have your neck hugged off! Can’t wait to see all of your sweet faces!!

I am so excited about the conference and can’t wait to meet you. You spoke at my church about a month ago (Thompson Station Baptist) for a women’s banquet and I was so moved by your testimony and words of faith and healing. I wanted to meet you then but time didn’t allow it. I’ll be looking for my hug in a few weeks! See you then.

Much love,

Hi, there! What a refreshing post! I could tell from the very start that the P31 ladies are a different kind of animal! I have never seen such open support for others, as well as a genuine desire to help other women pursue their dreams. You ladies are very special. I can’t wait for SheSpeaks!

Hi Micca! I am linking over from Lysa’s blog. I will be at She Speaks, which I am very excited about. I’m going on the writers track.
Good to “meet” you and see you there.
Lysa TerKeurst says
Okay… a spray tan? Exactly how do they do that? What are you wearing and how do they spray you?
Have mercy…
I can’t wait to see your little tan self in less than 3 weeks!!!

Hi Micca!
Last year was my first time at She Speaks. I think I rode the elevator with you once, but was afraid to approach you. 🙂 Sure wish I could be there this year.
Just wanted you to know that I will be praying for you as you gear up for She Speaks. I pray that God gives you all that you need.
Blessings,
Pearls
