REST ZOOM Take-Aways...

Wow! Just a few weeks ago if you had told me that I would do REST gatherings by Zoom, I would have said, "WHAT??!!"

Never entered my mind until the time this COVID-19 popped on the scene in such a global way! It has been interesting to me to see how this has evolved for me as the one initiating and hosting these meetings. It has been amazing as I have heard the take-aways that have been shared with me and others! I decided I would share some of these here. AND know that I am still in the midst of these Zoom REST gatherings happening. I have had 3 of these meetings so far and have 4 more to go!!

One of the amazing things has been the international flavor of these gatherings! Even the ones focused in the USA. Others from Asia have been able to join in on this REST Zoom in April (Friday night time in the USA).

Take-Aways by others...

1. A general sense of gratitude for these meetings is being expressed by many. There is this gratitude for the fellowship, connection, and encouragement that we can give one another even over the airways of internet through Zoom.

2. At the end of the gatherings, women have shared that they had such joy worshiping with other sisters in the Body all over the world.

3. One lady in Asia shared how she knows now that we can be close to the Father and we do not have to be afraid of any danger. She was encouraged that she will find the peace that Jesus gives to us!

4. Some ladies from Asia asked for the notes of one of the sessions because it inspired them so much, and they wanted to read/study over it. (Thankfully we could supply that to them)

5. In a session in Germany, one of the ladies shared how God spoke Words to her through the session about a specific question that she has had!

6. A specific testimony by T. in Germany: This meeting impacted her so much. It helped her to know to never be ashamed to come before Jesus because He loves her! (A huge revelation for her!! God tapped into an area during this meeting that she had not realized was still a problem for her.)

7. A specific testimony by S. from REST in April: "The other night blessed me so much!! Your illustration / testimony of the idea of floating as resting in the Lord has been coming back to me again and again. I needed that! I also keep going back to how you described just a little news and match this with a lot of time in the Lord."

8. One last take away for me (Cindy). I have seen women sharing heart to heart to encourage one another (especially in the Germany REST where we could have a small chat time). Sharing personal struggles and the wisdom God gave them to find His peace and help in the storms they faced. (Storms of criticism, persecution, etc.)

My heart is overjoyed with what God is doing! I am so thankful I followed this new plan that He gave! I am so thankful He is showing up with His anointing...His Spirit to minister to each lady present! We truly can not put God in a box. He is smarter than we are!!!

Blessings! Cindy
