Taste the sweetness...

This past weekend I attended the She Speaks Conference through Proverbs 31 Ministries. The weekend was awesome and unexplainable. It was a refreshing time to break away and learn more about His plan for me. I went to define my speaking and writing skills and I did do that, however, I got so much more. God joined me on purpose in a very sweet way. I felt as if I could melt in the arms of God! He was so melting my heart for His love even more. His presence and sweetness to me was sweeter than a Hershey's kiss melting in my mouth. A line from P31 Speaker Wendy Pope says it all, " I could take me a big ole' bite of me some Jesus!" Hmmm! That is how good and sweet Jesus was to His me and all His daughters. His presence was so sweet and tender as...

He spoke,

He loved,

He cared,

and He embraced His daughters and affirmed us in Him.

He defined and refined to be more like Him. He showed true purpose in writing and speaking and then released all his daughters to go and spread the message.

As the conference ended with hugs,tears and good bye's there was one common sense of peace. His sweetness and tenderness went with each of us. Just because the conference closed didn't mean that the sweet feeling of His love or His presence ended. We can taste and see that the Lord is good everyday right in our own home. He desires to lavish His love on His daughters and He is wild about us! I am all about my Jesus being wild about me! We can have the same melty, sweet experiences everywhere. He has a wild desire for us, however, we have to be wild about Him too. So, now renew the excitement to love on Jesus and indulge in a refreshing way tasting His sweetness. As His daughters, we must slow down from the busy schedules, the cooking, the kids and so forth to take time to experience the sweetness. Sometimes we miss it because we are so busy or have our own plans. The challenge is in the everyday walk of being close to a true love and that is taking the time to " taste His sweetness". The sweetness of Jesus will leave us forever changed.

So, may I leave you with this... God desires to lavish His love on you. He desires to hold you and tenderly love you. He desires to lead you and show you the way you should go everyday, every second. I would love to share my sweet, tender Jesus with you. He is the love of my life and He knows how to make my heart melt. He will melt your heart too. Will you invite Jesus in and taste of His sweetness?

Dear Sweet Jesus, Thank you that you lavish your love on us, your daughters. May you melt our hearts in the sweetest way as you draw us closer to you. Allow us to taste and see the goodness of the Lord every day and every second. May each of the ladies reading this experience you Jesus, and may she come to know how sweet, faithful and lovable you are. In Jesus name.

Sweet blessings,

Lesia

Yes, Jesus did meet us all there, but to anyone reading this Jesus doesn't need a meeting to be with us. I remember times when I wanted to go to conferences and money or time made it impossible. God's love is with us all times.

This post was a lift and a blessing, keep it up we need the encouragement.

Good to hear from you Kay! My most favorite place to meet my Jesus is at my swing on the back deck. We have some of the best talks out there. Early in the morning is my favorite, but then it is all day long too.
Psalms 143:8.
