I want to pray with you.
Someone called me today and asked me to consider a ministry opportunity. As I’ve shared before, there have been times I’ve said, “I’ll pray about it,” and it’s just been a delay because something seemed too big.
This time it was different.
I need to pray about that.
I think the answer will be yes, but I knew that I had to hear from God first.
Are you there with me?
Are you asking God for direction?
Are you seeking untapped power, untapped revolution, untapped transformation (see Chapter 11 of Come With Me)?
Let’s pause and pray together.
This is my need: If I say yes, I’ll have to say no to something else. So I need direction.
How can I pray with you? I have some amazing women on my team that know how to pray and they aren’t afraid to “go there” for you.
And while you are at it, will you pray with me about something else? I’m doing something really fun today but it’s a first.
My good friends, Holley Gerth (a bestselling author, speaker, and counselor), Jennifer Watson (blogger extraordinaire and speaker), and I will be hosting our first Facebook Live broadcast. We are talking about taking a risk in friendship, and why we might struggle to take that risk.
It’s at 2:30 CT and you can either watch it live or see it afterwards at your convenience by connecting with us on our ministry pages:

Will you pray with us as we take this big leap of faith? We’ve been meeting as the Word girls (love the Word of God and we love ministry) for a couple of years, but we want women from all over the world to join us.
I hope I see you there!

Excited for this event!
Have an awesome week ahead!
Sounds good! I’ll be needed to listen to it afterwards. Praying!
I am excited to join in and listen. I read Holley’s blogs too, so encouraging! Thank you, Susie.
I can’t wait to hear what God has laid on all of your hearts!
I am praying for God to give you direction, clarity and confirmation for you in your decision!
I said “yes” to the ministry opportunity, and God gave clarity on what I could put down so that I could do this. Direction. What a blessing!
I have chills just reading this, Suzie!! God is so, so good!!! He always knows how He is going to answer our prayers before we do. Our precious Father is so faithful to us!!
I just posted this Suzie, “Need a fresh direction? A clear focus?
“In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:6” and now I see your post. I’m thinking God is directing me to pray. Thank you for always being a source of encouragement and a mentor that keeps up in step with His path. Looking forward to this afternoon. Hoping work will be light so I can tune in live!
Thank you, sweet Jodie. I need to hear these words myself. I allow things to get in the way of that untapped power and transformation.
Jodie,
I am sitting here right now doing a verse map on Proverbs 3:5-6!
God binds heart in unity with His word!
I came in late to the event, but I listened later, and it was so good to hear you all share your hearts about friendship! And what a blessing to join you in prayer, here in the Book Study, and with your friends as well. This has been a timely book for me. I am so glad I signed up! May the Lord bless you as you say “yes” to your new ministry opportunity!
