Grace and Peace unto you! Allow me to say first and foremost Welcome to our second Dancing with Broken Bones Women’s Conference. If this is your first time you are in for a blessing; if this is your second time you know what to expect and you are in for an even greater richer blessing! This conference/retreat was established with you in mind. In Psalms 51:7 where David said “Allow me to hear joy and gladness that the Bones you have Broken may dance again.” The purpose of this conference/retreat is to equip, educate and empower you with the necessary tools/ skills that you may need to dance. Whether you are dancing single, or with somebody, I hope you dance! The difference between winners and losers is not in our brokenness, it’s in our dance. One day an older woman at my church asked me, “Why do I dance so much?” I told her, it’s because I have been broken so deeply. My dance is my greatest testimony. I have learned to embrace the brokenness because the brokenness produced a greater, richer, deeper, more meaningful dance in me. I am so delighted that you decided to join me and a few dancers on the dance floor. Some of my dance partners were preachers and presenters last year, and some of them are new dance partners that we are delighted to have them join us on the dance floor. My prayer for you is that you will dance, and dance again, and keep on dancing. I pray that God will give you happy feet! Thanks for coming to dance with me. I’ll see you on the dance floor!
