Pinnacle Peak, AZ

Hello Friends,
Today is my last day here in Phoenix and it's been a truly amazing experience this week. Yesterday we went on a 4 mile hike up and down, side to side…….on Pinnacle peak. My legs hurt today ….this Florida girl ain’t used to mountains. But it was beautiful and breathtaking and for the first time I can see myself out here in the dessert. I think I’m starting to love it. Not only that, but since I’ve been here I’ve been writing and visioneering about all that lies ahead. We have been talking a lot about all the energy moving for this first book on women’s identity. Dr. Beasley is making more progress than ever now that she is teaching it and her podcast’s are available on the GRM website. The second book may possibly be about “the younger woman in the 21st century church”. OMG…..that just really excites me. Today was our board meeting where I brought up some personal questions and the board was very helpful. We also have a lot going on already.
The girl I’ve been staying with (Alyssa Spitale) is on staff at GRM and has been showing me the cool stuff of Phoenix an introducing me to friends her age. I met my room mate Anna who is really easy going and sweet. I can see it being easy to live together. I have pictures coming for you to see the hike and the new home I’ll live in…….
Anyways, at the end of the night of meeting Anna she suggested that we all pray together. So all 4 of us got on our knees spontaneously and held hands. I think I was in tears before they started praying for me. Here I was in this foreign place, in my future home with my future room mate praying with 4 single, godly girls all in their 30’s……God’s provisions are overwhelming! They prayed in power and the Spirit was just there (even though Obama had just been elected PresidentJ

Last night Alyssa and I went to coffee and had so much fun playing in Claire's with all the Holloween stuff. There are so many places here to just go and hang out for free and be social…….

So anyway, thanks for all your prayers because I can really feel God’s affirmation taking away any fear in this next step……
