SEE WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

Thank you for your powerful spiritual messages, Susan. God truly spoke through you in a mighty way! Your messages were a rich blessing to each of us! I learned so much from the way you prepared to help me as I prepare for Bible Studies.

Peggy RiceChairSmoky Mt. Women’s Retreat 

Susan Ely, thank you for sharing your amazing testimony with CWC today. God is using you in more ways than you’ll ever know. Totally Awesome!

Debbie PhillipsDunn Christian Women’s Connection

I loved your “invitation” opening. Its one of those ways your listeners will recall your message of the wonder that Almighty God as gone to such lengths to give us his word.

Phyllis SternStonecroft Speaker Trainer 

A year since our retreat… and in this season of my life, I have begun to once again apply your “Re-words.” Yours yesterday was God’s timing for me … and today, also! Thanks so much!

Carla HawkinsPianist Smoky Mt. Women’s Retreat 

Thank you for participating in the Call to Prayer. Your presentation was powerful and prepared our hearts for prayer. We came away from the morning knowing we had been in God’s presence.

Joyce WagstaffSRA Stonecroft Inernational 

We were so blessed to have you share your message and journey with us. So many members wanted me to let you know that you touched their hearts and souls and I am sure the 1st timers were given hope and reassurance by your words. I hope we have a chance to cross paths again.

Sooo many mistakes, including not saving the song

Sooo many mistakes, including not saving the song I chose for this reel lol. If only I could manage to follow directions, sigh. Cut the paper incorrectly and unevenly, forgot to order the binding tape, etc., etc…
But there were so many takeaways! Started off by making the biggest collage I’ve ever done ( gulp) then having the courage to cut it up and study and rebalance the composition of the random new designs, and learned how to do slip knot binding. I’d say it was worth it, wouldn’t you? What have you learned from your mistakes lately?

Working without limitations sounds fabulous until

Working without limitations sounds fabulous until I actually sit down to create. With so many choices, so much ‘muchness’, I become paralyzed. The truth is, I work much better with limitations. How about you?

Today’s abstract grid journal practice. Fun! But humbling. Long way to go towards learning all the things I want/need to learn. Back to basics!

What’s the deal with Re-words? #Renew #Refresh

What’s the deal with Re-words?
#Renew
#Refresh
#Restore
#Rebuild
#Return

Re-words resonate ( another Re-word).

Of course they do; people are broken and need to be repaired. They experience loss and long for restoration. They feel pain and want relief.

People need God even if they don’t know they need God. They need redemption.

Re-words produce an emotional response because they’re at the very heart of God, an echo of heaven, a faint sound in our spirit that reminds us of home, pointing us back to the Father. We want, need a do over, a fresh start. A new beginning.

As @grahamcooke_official says, “ If all your thoughts have brought you to a place you don’t like, have a new thought.”
