As expected, the SDG was AMAZING!! Each year has felt different. None has felt the same, building on the previous year.
Also, as expected, the anxiety attacks were shut down, and did not return. I do not experience anxiety, and I refuse to allow that in. I enjoyed a peaceful, restful stay on the Gold Coast.
I have sooooo much I could write... as well as what feels like a billion photos! I will need to sit down and gradually go through my photos, with pen in hand... and write what feels like a book of only 2 significant weeks of my life. Each photo triggers a memory, and I don't want to forget why I took each photo!
I again met up with my amazing prophetic friends, and physically met new friends. I love this part the most! The divine connections this group creates. People who just get each other, in a safe environment. I love these people like family.
I served on the team for this conference. I was given a responsibility I did not expect, and with a beautiful partner who was on the same wavelength. At first, the task was daunting, trying to work out what we needed, and how to make things work. We found our feet together, and hopefully, with God's guidance, fulfilled our duties well. It was an honour to be selected for this team.
Interestingly, I did not think I connected with the worship in the same way as previous years...however, each morning, I awoke with the songs playing in my head! I feel the worship slowly found its way into my innermost being. It touched me, in a more delicate way as to how I expected. Each year, I find one song playing on repeat in my mind, and it lingers for months. I add it to my Spotify list. I have never heard these songs until the SDG. This year it is Bethel's "No One Like the Lord". I think the words were more difficult to simply accept...they needed to seep into my spirit. God knows what He is doing!
I received prophetic words which really spoke to my spirit. The speakers were amazing. The atmosphere was intensely beautiful!
God brought fresh laughter to me... a "new thing". One night, I was lying on the floor, laughing, giggling...it came from the depths of me... and another lady behind me was doing the same! I don't know who she was, but it was more funny, and encouraging doing it together!
I've since been finding myself randomly laughing in this fresh way!
God broke things... health, spiritual, bloodline, emotional...
It didn't end at the SDG. I will write another post continuing from here. There is just so much to write! After I returned home, I didn't have time to stop and process. We've had some big, unexpected expenses. I've been going to work, coming home exhausted, & between appointments, spending the nights decluttering & creating easy access to parts of the house that needed major repairs. I like the less clutter, but it is exhausting when you don't have time to rest after a big day. All I can say, is this is a reminder that God is doing a "new thing" in our lives. There is always rain before the rainbow! We're about to see the rainbow on the horizon! 🙌🦋🌈🔥©️
