Our annual ladies luncheon was absolutely beautiful. Delicious food, exquisite decorations and wonderful messages from our visiting missionaries. Lupita Morton shared her ministry for the nations, Shirley Duncan shared her ministry with The Hotdog Club and her neighborhood and Rhonda Holton updated us on The Lizzie Project and what Jesus is doing in Honduras. Just look at the pictures!!

Greetings, ladies, from the Indian Springs Ladiesโ€™ Fellowship Team!

Can you imagine yourself sitting beneath a large, sweet-smelling Southern magnolia tree with a tall glass of sweet tea in your hand? As you breathe in its fragrance, the cares of life begin to melt away, and your weary soul finds rest.

Appointments, unimaginable stresses, and perhaps even messy family situations have, at one time or another, been faithful companions. But today, let's pause together and "smell the magnolias."

Now imagine how Jesus feels when you choose to spend time with Him. He clears His calendar when you arrive. He delights in your presence. Perhaps He begins telling you about the morning He cooked breakfast for His disciples (John 21:1โ€“13). You are His invited guest, and He is so glad you've come. Just picture itโ€”you and Jesus beneath the magnolia tree, sipping sweet tea together.

Ladies, this is a gentle reminder that the I๐‘ฐ๐™ฃ๐’…๐™ž๐’‚๐™ฃ ๐™Ž๐’‘๐™ง๐’Š๐™ฃ๐’ˆ๐™จ ๐™‡๐’‚๐™™๐’Š๐™š๐’”' ๐™๐’†๐™ก๐’๐™ค๐’˜๐™จ๐’‰๐™ž๐’‘ ๐‘ณ๐™ช๐’๐™˜๐’‰๐™š๐’๐™ฃ is just around the corner on ๐— ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฎ๐˜†, ๐—๐˜‚๐—น๐˜† ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฏ. This special gathering is an opportunity to pause, be refreshed, and enjoy a luncheon prepared especially for you.

Most importantly, Jesus is already there. He is the true Host of the Indian Springs Holiness Camp Meeting.

You'll also have the opportunity to meet women who faithfully serve the Lord alongside their husbands on the mission field. It is a privilege to pray with them and for them as they share the joys and challenges of ministry. Their personal stories will make you laugh, cry, rejoice, and leave you wanting to wrap them in a hug. It is truly a special time that you won't want to miss.

We hope you'll join us for an afternoon of refreshment, sweet fellowship, and an abundance of Jesus' love!

๐Ÿ’— We can't wait to see you there! ๐Ÿ’—

With undivided hearts and open hands we came to receive all that the LORD had for us! Cleansing, purifying, forgiveness which included our need to forgive others. The praise team brought us into the throne room each and every time we met together in the tabernacle under the banner of โ€œHOLINESS UNTO THE LORDโ€. Jesus met us and we rejoiced in His Presence!

Most women who attended the Indian Springs Ladies Followship Event have returned to their homes and are settling back into the dailiness of life that is anything but routine, of course. You are most likely pondering all that you heard, saw, and felt at every meal, at every quiet time in prayer and in Godโ€™s word, with every worship song lifted up to Jesus, and then the words of the speakers resonating in your heart.

Since you had such a great time, hanging out with Jesus and women who love Him as much as you do, you momentarily wondered what it would be like to attend womenโ€™s ministry events from the east coast to the west, one right after another, while making Jesus friends all across the country.

Perhaps you could attend the holiness camps in your area this summer, then head to Wilmore in September for the Titus Retreat. But what about all the in between time you ask.

We actually do get to have one ministry event after another when we consider there is Sunday School, church, and Bible study, all the while having the opportunity to meet with God multiple times each day for prayer and delving into His word. As I ponder what this might look like, I think it would be fabulous since it would broaden our knowledge of God and scripture, draw us intimately closer to Jesus, and provide fellowship with one another, I think we could be looking at a lifelong womenโ€™s retreat. We have the privilege of living in Christ, and we get to do life with Jesus โ€“ the good, the not so good, and the devastating.

Amy Carmichael was an amazing woman, and I believe she is hanging out with Jesus, pointing out every child that needs an extra hug from Him.

Perhaps consider something Amy Carmichael said many years ago as you return home with your hearts filled with Jesus, desiring to always have an undivided heart.

David Hazard compiled several of Amy Carmichaels writings in a little book called, โ€œI Come Quietly to Meet You.โ€ In the forward of the book, he says this about Ms. Carmichael.

โ€œTo read Amy Carmichael is to find your own spirit rekindled by the intensity of her โ€œvisionโ€ of God. At the bedrock of her faith lie these immoveable principles:

God is, first and always, a loving Father.

Everything that comes to us is for our good, because it comes from a good Father, in whom there is no darkness.

When we come to know our โ€œFather of Lightsโ€โ€”when we โ€œtuckโ€ ourselves into God by trusting Him as little childrenโ€”He will carry us through.โ€

For anyone wanting to walk the path that she has done, you may hear her say, let me share with you these two points. 1. The cross is the attraction, and 2. Unconditional surrender to her beloved King. Ms. Carmichael knew quite well what it meant to have an undivided heart, as she lived tucked into Jesus, and she wants us to know that life as well.

The account of the blind man is Mark 8 speaks volumes. Perhaps a question to ponder, โ€œIf Jesus reached for your hand, indicating He wanted you to walk with Him, with no explanation, would you place your hand in His and allow Him to lead you?โ€

Letโ€™s do it together โ€“ keeping our eyes on Jesus, placing our hand in His, with an undivided heart!

History was about to be set on its heels, and the religious leaders of the day were about to learn they were not as in charge as they thought they were.

Saul, later known as Paul was an absolute terror when it came to the early church and persecuting Christians. He was violent towards followers of Jesus, causing harm to those who did not think as he did. What Paul did not realize was that his battle was with Jesus, and not with those who believed differently than he.

Oh, how different the world would look today if we could learn from Saul, and the rash misjudgments he made in the name of religion. Perhaps the world would be in a state of revival today, if our prejudices would be overshadowed with hope found only in Jesus, and if our battles were fought on the pages of scriptures instead of in the hearts and homes of ourselves and those we love.

When we first meet Saul, we soon learn he is passionate, however he was in desperate need of Jesus.
The verses in Acts 9 reveal a dynamic relationship between Saul, Ananias, and God that allows us to see surrender, obedience, and trust.

Ananias was introduced to us as a believer from Damascus. God called to him by name and Ananias replied immediately with, โ€œYes, Lord!โ€ Little did Ananias know that when he said โ€œYesโ€ to God that it would be the spark that would take the gospel to the corners of the earth.

Ananias did not question who was calling him, and he did not hesitate to respond. It is safe to say, that Ananias knew Godโ€™s voice, leaving us to believe it was not the first time God called his name.
God gives Ananias his instructions, but when he hears the name, โ€œSaulโ€ he says, โ€œBut Lord.โ€ I wonder if Ananias could be heard whispering to himself, โ€œGod, are you kidding me?โ€ Truth be told I have asked God that same question, if only out of disbelief. Iโ€™m sure God understood why Ananias would have doubt and concern, after all Saul was killing people all in the name of the church.

Ananias was obedient to God, and as we know today, the world has never been the same.
Is there something that God has requested of you, and you just cannot believe that He would ask you of all people to do such a thing. Perhaps you have even whispered to yourself, โ€œGod, are you kidding me?โ€ If you are having doubts, even fear about doing what God has asked, then pause and prayerfully with your scriptures, consider that the One who hangs the stars in the sky knows, your name.
I believe it could be said that Ananias had an undivided heart, committed to obeying the One who knew his name.

Is God calling your name today? Be prepared for your world to never be the same when you say, โ€œYes, Lord, Yes!โ€

โ€œHear me as I pray, O Lord. Be merciful and answer me! 8 My heart has heard you say, โ€œCome and talk with me.โ€
