a woman who says yes to God.
"...i called my dear friend sheila one day and asked her this question. i poured out my heart. i unloaded all my doubts and questions. she patiently listened without much response. "why me, sheila? why me?" then quietly and prayerfully she answered. "because God knew you'd say yes, Lysa" i was stunned. it was the highest compliment i'd ever recieved. my heart was filled with joy as suddenly memories filled my mind of the years of spiritual training God had taken me through to get me to the place where i could be called a woman who says yes to God...""...i'm convinced breakthroughs come during this famine phase, not when we're striving to make them happen. breakthroughs happen when we get about the business of honoring God moment by moment, step-by-step, day by day by what we do and, more importantly, with the thoughts we think while we do. people who don't say yes to the Lord can still live a good life. but only those who fully embrace God can experience the wonder and awe of a "yes" heart that lives the great life He intends..."
