Women of Faith

I spent this past weekend at the Women of Faith Women’s conference. It’s a Non-Denominational Women’s Conference put annually all over the country. It was held at the local Arena that holds around 17,000 people.  This is my 2^nd year going with my neighbor. I have to say I enjoyed it much more this time then last time.  Last time I was at a different place in my life and everything was new, this year I really wanted to go and knew what to expect.

I loved being surrounded by thousands of Women who came together to better them selves and to be spiritually uplifted.  I walked away wanting more.  I want to surround myself with women like them more often.  Now the question is how do I go about it?  That is the million-dollar question at the moment. I’ve been pondering this for a few days now.  I was thinking that it would be nice to join a Women’s Bible Study Group, but I don’t know of any.   Last night I spent hours searching the web for women’s bible study groups and/or women’s ministries, but didn’t find one that drew me in. There were a few that sounded good, but they started last year. Maybe when the year begins I can join one.

I joined my neighbor many years back at hers and I stopped going because our beliefs conflicted.  So maybe a bible study with a different church may not be a good idea if our beliefs clash. That leaves me to study alone. Well, at least I’m on the right track for that. I bought a few different books by authors at the conference. 2 of the books are devotional books so that should help guide me through my own personal bible study; maybe it will be almost like having somewhere there? I doubt it, but I’m not sure what else to do.

One thing I know is God is always looking out for me. I’ve been chatting the past few days with Mason’s Mom. I was telling that I though she’d enjoy going to Women Of Faith and to my surprise she said she went back in 1997 and loved it. She also got their Women’s Bible and loved it. She then texted me today and she said her girlfriend just gave hear a devotional bible and has an extra and would love to give me one. Wow, if that isn’t an answer to my prayer then what is.  So, maybe I don’t have a local bible study to interact with, but I have many faith filled friends I can talk to.
