SHAPE Testimonies

SHAPE Testimony
Jennifer Hartley
 
I first attended the SHAPE retreat 2 years ago.  Before, I had a pretty good idea of my gifts/talents, but going to the retreat, hearing the teachings and testimonies and completing the inventories and surveys really gave me confidence that I was on the right track! I have since been able to plug in and find places of service to use my giftings at Beltway Park!  I also made connections with new friends and have walked in relationship with them ever since!

Breakthrough by Audra Butler

I have been feeling some very strange and growing emotions since quarantine began.  I can’t define them. The only way to describe them are jumbled and cloudy.  It’s as if my mind and heart are growing cloudier with each day. I was texting back and forth last night with a dear sister (because that’s what you do in quarantine 😂 ).  Her texts to me were the exact feelings I had been experiencing.  It was confirmation that we were to start praying for breakthrough. I woke up early this morning and was so ready to sit in His presence, open His word, read what He had for me and hear His sweet voice.  But, when I looked outside, the sunrise caught me!  I immediately ran out to enjoy the pinks and oranges filling the sky.  Then, I turned the opposite way and I was in awe of the almost full moon and a Great Blue Heron sitting so majestically on the neighbor’s pier.  Our Creator’s beauty always outdoes itself and speaks an infinite amount of word...
