Women of Faith '09: Mandisa

My cousin invited me to join her small group for the Women of Faith conference this past weekend in Atlanta. And boy, oh boy, am I glad I went. So many things from the days absolutely touched me to my core. I'm still processing much of it, and I imagine I will write about different parts to come.

Today, though, I am compelled to share this incredible song with you. Mandisa performed, and she was just AWESOME! What a beautiful woman of God she is! As she performed this song, I sat and soaked every single word in. As tears streamed down my face, I thought of so many of my friends. So many of you. There are so many different struggles I know my friends are going through. There are so many more that I don't know about. Regardless, He is With You.

I wish I could go to Women of Faith when they come to Houston! I looked for Mandisa's CD today at Target, but they were all out. I'll keep looking! Glad you had a great time!
