My Weekend Retreat With Team Bloom.
Okay, I told you I would update you all on my getaway with the lovely leaders of Bloom so here goes. Well, honestly, my mind and heart was not in it when I first arrived because I was battling with some past demons that were still affecting my current life. Basically, God was showing me how damaged I was and how I was damaging others by my own pain that I wasn't healed from. Nevertheless, the retreat was such a success. What the enemy intended for bad God surely turned into good. I am so excited that I got to know my spiritual sisters a little bit better. I am even more excited to work with these teens and guide them through their healing. I want them to know that they don't have to wait until my age to receive healing. They don't have to make the many mistakes I made or become the person I became because of the sexual abuse I endured as a child and as an adult. I am just ecstatic about what God is doing in my life. The way He is changing my environment and the way He is sustaining me through the good as well as the bad. This was a much needed getaway to get closer to God. Just to be able to hear His voice so clearly. Yes, the purging process was painful but it was needed. I will admit I would have rather not felt any of it but because I did I conquered it! Yay me!!! =) You never know how much you hold yourself back when you hold all that pain in. Confronting and Conquering is a necessity.Well, I just wanted to update you all so be blessed and have a wonderful evening. I know I will.....SMOOCHES!!!

I am super stoked!!! =)
Today I am going on my first women's retreat!!! =) As, I told you all before I am a part of a non profit organization called BLOOM which is geared towards teenage girls who are victims of sexual abuse. Well, starting tomorrow I will be spending time with our leaders and the rest of the team that works with BLOOM just to have a relaxing and spirit filled weekend of fellowship. I really need this kind of thing in my life right now. A time to get away and just feel God up close and personal. I am expecting great things to come and for God to change all of our situations around. We have a mighty task on our hands once school starts and we start working with these young women. Yes, thank you Jesus for bringing such beautiful, powerful, and anointed women together in UNITY. I need to start packing and stop typing. I will blog about my experience when I return. I hope you all have a fabulous weekend and may the favor of God be upon your lives!!!
SMOOCHES.....MUAH!!!
