Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your words of love, truth, charge, and hope and oh so much more to the others and me this weekend. Thank you for just being you and for encouraging us with His Word of love to us.

Holiness was taught, but I never felt that I could live it. I have sought the Holy Spirit for many years. I cannot express how I feel in my heart. Some issues I have had for many years and have been quite miserable. Thank you so very much for minding the Holy Spirit. Since that day, I have had such peace.

May the Lord richly bless you as you serve Him.

Carolyn,

Your obedience to the Lord and giving the "Chalk Talk" message yesterday morning sent the ladies from Trinity in Nashville home to begin a Revival and healing in our church last night. After true forgiveness in my heart on Saturday night, the Lord's Day brought me courage to ask my blood family for forgiveness.

Dear Carolyn,

God is definitely using you to reach other women and I praise Him that YOU are being obedient in doing so. I believe that is the first part of our relationship with Jesus Christ.....being obedient. I thank you for a refreshing and renewing retreat and I give Our God the praise and the glory. I pray God's continued blessings on you and your life. I'm glad He gave me the opportunity to meet you.

In His Service Together,

Thank you Carolyn for such a wonderful weekend at the Virginia District Ladies Retreat. My prayer is that you'll meet up with Oprah on a plane someday and have the opportunity to speak with her!

Dear Carolyn

I appreciated your manner for speaking to us about VERY important and personal matters without embarrassing anyone, as most of the really sensitive material was offered in prayer with eyes closed. This allowed me (and I think others) to speak intimately with my Father, but more importantly to listen quietly while the Holy Spirit spoke to me about spiritual things in my life that needed to be addressed.

Hi Carolyn

You shared freely from your heart. You were challenging and convicting, but did not make us feel uncomfortable. The Holy Spirit worked through you as we listened and found places in our lives where we needed to allow Christ in.

The Lord used you to speak to my heart about the power of forgiveness. One of my take away lines is: Jesus, in reaching out to the Samaritan woman, at the well was willing to cross any line to reach one lost soul. Am I willing to cross any line to share His love and salvation?

As a result of the messages, location, worship, and fellowship I felt refreshed like a clean, clear breeze washing over my heart and soul . . . a total makeover from the inside out.

Hi Carolyn...

I just wanted to thank you for speaking at the Women's District Retreat in Nebraska last weekend. It was amazing to hear the word of God speak to me directly through you and I am so thankful to have been able to attend.

Sincerely,
Dawn

Dear Carolyn,

I just attended the women's retreat this past weekend at Forest Home, and I just wanted to let you know that God truly spoke to my heart through you. I had some doors in my life that I was not opening up to God, and because those areas were painful for me, I rationalized it by telling myself that I could handle them on my own. Through you, I was able to see how destructive that was, and I made a firm commitment to surrender everything to Him. I must tell you, it was like a weight was lifted from my shoulders and a calmness had filled me that I had not experienced before. Even my husband and kids commented on how I was different when I came back. God is so good!!! Thank you for your encouragement and your prayers. God is truly using you in a powerful way.

In Him,

I wasn't going to come because of the loss of my son three weeks ago...I took notes during your talk which I will copy into my journal. I will review them every time I am feeling low. Thank you.

I'd like to thank you for this morning. It gave me the courage to stay strong in my marriage. I've been married 13 years to a man I don't really like but we have three small children...he is religious but not spiritual. God has become my husband. Thanks for this weekend.

I woke today (Monday) as if from a dream...only to realize just how very real things were and are from the weekend. Wow, God just keeps working...WOW...I am awed. He is working in so many different capacities, too. Unbelievable.

God used you, Carolyn, in a mighty way to speak directly to needs you didn't know about. Isn't that just like God? He's so faithful. How I praise Him.

It is clear that your prayer warriors are behind you and make a difference! Most of the time I come away from retreats and the like, with pleasant memories and ideas, but I don't usually put the learning into practice. I suppose that's human nature. This time was very different for me--and I am so glad!
