Today I had the privilege of speaking to the entire group of women at Camp Celebrate.

I had been praying for days about what to say, and as I came to camp and started talking to all these other moms, I felt like an impostor. I kept asking myself, “What wisdom do I have that they don’t?!”


The truth is, I don’t. But what I do have is my story, so that’s what I shared.


No notes—just let the Spirit guide, and let me tell you, Jesus showed up.


I told parts of my story I’ve never shared and others I’ve shared thousands of times.


As I watched the audience well up in tears, I knew something was hitting hard.


As we listened to a song I played, I kept feeling the nudge to call women up who needed prayer—women who needed faith, needed a breakthrough.


If I’m honest, I was slightly afraid to do this because, in all honesty, it wasn’t on the agenda and I didn’t exactly have permission. But I did it anyway.


Almost the whole room gathered around a few women who were desperate to see Jesus show up. We prayed, we cried, and Jesus showed up.


I may not have the perfect words, and you won’t either, but what you do have is your story, and if you’re a Christian, the Holy Spirit to lead. Don’t be afraid to listen. You’ll be surprised when you see what God does.
