God shows up...

God shows up in a Beth Moore conference and you would expect that - but God also shows up in the regular day - where you're doing what you always do. boom He is present and you know it. i saw Him yesterday. i saw Him in the sweat and determination of women pushing themselves physically to be "stronger"... and i saw Him in the celebration of a young beautiful woman about to be married...i saw Him in the words gently spoken to her as a treasured gift of encouragement... and i also saw Him in the eyes of my friend sitting across the desk from me... i felt Him in the words passed back and forth between us...i saw Him in the back pack of burdens she carries, and in her heaviness of her words. i saw Him in the caring embrace between us and in the tears she cried. He knows. He carries her. and He will keep on showing up.
