There are more than a few words to describe this conference for women on the "Holy Heart".  A few words or phrases that come to my mind, are: Awesome, Amazing, Spirit Filled, Wonderful, Full of GOD'S presence, Exciting, Humbling, Spirit led, full of God's Grace & Truth, Encouraging, Uplifting, the Holy Spirit's conviction, Powerful, Knowledge too wonderful to explain, and so many more!  It was not just an emotional experience, although there were many emotions present.  I really believe that the difference in this conference, is that it was born out of a prayer retreat, and that it is bathed in prayer, not just 40 days in advance, but for a whole year.  This was the second "Come to the Fire", that I have attended. I was not able to come to the first or the third one, but year #4 picked up where year #2 left off, only better still!  I told my husband that I would rather go to this conference that any retreat or conference that I've ever been to, and I've been to a lot of t!
hem.  To me, "Come to the Fire", surpasses them all!  I didn't really come with any expections, but I knew that God would be there and that it would be wonderful.  This second time for me, surpassed the first one that I attended in Kansas City two years ago.  Whatever this team is doing, keep it up!  Don't stop and don't change your focus: God the Father, Jesus Christ the son, and the Holy Spirit.  You are women who truly care, and who are filled with the Holy Spirit.  I just arrived home yesterday, and I still feel the fire burning in my heart.   Please pray for me, that I will be able to be a conduit of the Holy Spirit, to light more fires within the hearts of more women, and pray that it will also ignite the men who are touched by their wives, mother's, sister's and friends.  I am amazed at the difference that I feel in my heart, even now, a few days later.  I don't want to ever lose this fervency from the Lord.  I have to tell you that I am a Pastor's wife, who was very!
 weary from the trials of life and ministry.  I am revived because I h
ave found my first love again, in a brand new way.  ALL of the speakers, testimonies, and music, were sweet messages to hear, but the message where God really spoke to me, was the message from Linda Boyette.  Could you please let her know how much her message meant to me!?  I'm sure that many others were touched by her message "An Inheritance Worth Dying For"!  Tell her to keep her message going, through the power of the Holy Spirit.  He spoke to me through her spirit led and spirit filled message.  I was not able to say that "Jesus was Enough", but praise God, now I am able to say anew that "Jesus IS Enough"! Thank you Jesus, for speaking to me through your servant!  I was also privileged to have my Mom, from another state, with me at this conference, and she came to pray with me.  What a special blessing!  I was also able to be there with my best friend, which was a miracle and a story in itself, that she could be there!  Another lady came to be with my mom, and the bond !
we felt, was truly one of Christian love and fellowship.  Praise be to Christ Jesus!  I want to bring both of my daughters and any women who will listen to God, with me next year. I want them to be in the very presence of Jesus too, with me next year, in Ft. Wayne, Indiana.  I covet to pray for this conference for the coming year, that it will be full and overflowing of the presence of the Holy Spirit once again, and that more "fires" will be lit in the coming year, for Jesus!  Thank you for calling on the Lord, and for making this conference possible.  It is truly a life changing experience, each time!  I feel that I have been given a new name, "Deborah", and I also feel the Lord calling me to Prayer, more than ever, and I want to be whoever God is calling me to be, in the coming days and years.  May ALL the glory, honor, power and blessing, be given unto God, in the name of JESUS Christ His son! May God Bless you all!
