Golden Nuggets from Natalie
Our only option is LOVE!
Huge difference between HEAD knowledge about God and HEART knowledge.
God is ALWAYS working behind the scenes.
Christians are not exempt from hard times.
You never forget the dramatic loss of a parent.
After trauma we always end up with a choice…We can continue in devastation or we can surrender and trust and step into productivity through it WITH HIM.
Appreciate EVERY SINGLE day as it comes.
The military community has a common bond that allows instant friendships.
Let Him lead you and TRUST His lead.
Walk and move more in faith…as this will limit overthinking and agonizing over things.

Golden Nuggets from Marlene
“The only true freedom that I could find was in the Lord!”
All our choices tend to be around: OUR FEARS, OUR DESIRES or OUR NEEDS.
Watching living testimonies builds our faith.
We can make it through unthinkable circumstances as He gives us what we need one day at a time.
Darkness helps define light and evil helps define good.
He will sustain us….but we have to allow Him to be our strength for such.
It is in knowing WHO God is that we understand WHO we are.
Don’t take yourself so seriously, but do take God seriously.
Understanding a “sense of context in eternity” helps to ground us.
God is not simply a part of what I am doing…..I am invited to be a part of what HE is doing.
We have to know our smallness to know His bigness.
The performing arts are a gift and a reflection of our Creator and Creative God.
Christians should not abdicate from the ARTS but infiltrate the Arts…and enter the industry with confidence in the Lord and excellence in your craft.
Purpose comes from solving a problem. It all starts with the seed of an idea.
It is all about what we can give… not what we can get.
“Seek to bless not to impress.”

Golden Nuggets from Kim:
“The created owes everything to the Creator!”
We can be poor financially yet so rich in love and faith.
Just like an etch-a-sketch, we are limited and can only make “squares and stairs” but God, as Creator, created us each a beautiful masterpiece.
Give the Lord control of the driver's seat of life.
Remember that a parents faith is contagious.
His Word defines our identity and directs our destiny.
Only God, as creator and designer, has the authority to create, design and give identity.
God’s Word is His love story to us as His beloved bride.
Be a LOVER (WHO as identity) of God’s Word but also a DOER (DO as destiny).
He specializes in taking our messes and creating our masterpieces.
Our “dark places” bring depth, dimension and perspective to the masterpiece and message of our lives.
He uses our TEST to develop our testimony!
God sees that whole picture of our lives when we only see a little piece.
We become His trustworthy bride by trusting HIM.
He CAN DO (Phil 4:19) when we think we can’t do.
God can HIT THE MARK even with a crooked stick!
We need to know our value as God’s masterpiece…as His work of art that is valued at the price that He paid for it…His only SON died because we are worth it. Read about the work of art, “Salvator Mundi” HERE.
Walk in a humble yet holy confidence of your value!!!!!
As His creation, we are signed by our master Artist….with His own nail-pierced hands.
Unveil the ART in you to bring HIM the glory! 2 Corinthians 3:18

Golden Nuggets from Michelle:
When we are in a tragedy, ASK GOD for the “take-aways!”
God’s promises to carry us through our tragedies…in Isaiah.
Vonette Bright: “The fact that God has me living means He still has something left for me to do”
Pray continually!
Dream about fun things to start later (like being in a pageant at 60 years old)!
“What God brings us to….He equips us for!”
Tragedy can be many things like divorce, death, teens rebelling, debt, etc.
When unsure don’t forget to SEEK, ASK and KNOCK!!!
Learn the habit to pray about everything and anything…even the smallest things!
Don’t confuse unanswered prayer with unheard prayers.

Golden Nuggets from Judy:
People connect more easily while sitting around a table.
Conversations connect through sharing ideas and thoughts.
When entertaining, keep it simple and save your energy for your guests.
Judy has a heart to gather people to foster relationships.
People are more likely to bear their souls in conversations at the table.
God's faithfulness over-arches all of the Christ followers' life.
Good friendships take work and effort but are worth it. In order to have a friend you must be willing to be a friend.
Being friendly is an easy kindness to offer all! It starts with a smile and hello.
Hard work is a missing ingredient in today’s world.

Navigating Transitions
Transitions are inevitable
Transitions are a place of faith as you are not where you were and not yet where you are going to be!
Benefits looking back:
Felt my neediness for Him to lead, guide and direct me!
Forced me to “wait on God” and learn what that looks like
Opportunity for my faith to be tested and my unbelief to be exposed.
Clarifies our illusion of control.
Brings space for God to do miracles and show His grace.
Learned the value of finding someone to “walk through it with you”
He is the thread through all of our transitions
His presence is the promise!
God is always WITH you and FOR you and cannot FORSAKE you.
Life coaching can help you sort out all the things!
Whatever “IT” is, 100% of the time, IT is temporary. So put your eyes on God, your constant and solid ground.
Focus on God through:
Studying His Word
Having a Secret Time with Him
Answering His invitation to come unto Him
Being purposeful in worship
Making visual reminders of His presence or His Word
Stating “I am” statements agreeing with your identity in Christ and who He says you are
Being still … and simply meditating on truth
Slowing down your life and your breathing.
Realizing that God is working and that there is a greater purpose ahead.
Remember HIs faithfulness across time…write it down, memorize scripture, gratitude journal, stones of remembrance.

Golden Nuggets from Lucia:
Felt the “Spirit of Rejection” early in life but was unaware of it.
Kept chasing titles and awards on the performance treadmill. Had a way of overdoing it.
We can be surrounded by a million people and yet feel so quietly lonely!
Deep friendships make you better.
When we finally have an answer to our “issues” we are better able to deal with it.
Do you have a quiet hurt? Are you seeking the approval of others? Are you “Much Afraid?”
LOVE WITH A FULL HEART! You cannot love enough! Genuine love.
We don’t want to be judged therefore we must not judge another.
Seek a few deep relationships versus many shallow acquaintances. That is where we make and receive the most impact.
When you have a DEEP relationship, be very intentional to protect it.
Real relationships are hard.
Be curious about people to open a conversation…maybe “Tell me your story?”
The healthier we are, the more honest and authentic we become.
As a young person…..figure out your faith. Get on your knees, by faith, and seek the answer to your deepest needs.

Golden Nuggets from Delma:
It is sadly easy to “brush off” the needs of others.
God weaves thin threads of connections (even the smallest of things like pageant shoes) for His greater purposes.
Be willing to learn from differing: cultures, opinions, languages, religions.
Seek first to understand before being understood
We all feel like we are “misfits” in life sometimes.
Give people GRACE!
Our “eccentricity” or whatever makes us different, can actually be the thing that inspires others.
Don’t imitate others. Live in your own authenticity.
Give 100% to whatever work you do!
Diversity is beautiful in the body of Christ…..not to be divisive.
Sharing our difficulties helps us connect.
In life…things work out…but often when we are young we go into crisis mode.
We need to have courageous conversations.
