  April Showers?
Is it raining at your house? Funny how different regions of the world have different viewpoints and attitudes about rain. In the Northwest, most people have a negative view of rain. The Bible often refers to rain as a blessing! We pray for showers of blessings on and in your homes!

Welcome new readers who we met at the 'Total Networking Event for Women' in Seattle last month! Be sure to read our 'Happenings' section below about some exciting things to come.

Blessings to you!

     The Truth, as We Believe it   by Tammy Redmon

We act in accordance with the truth, as we believe it.

Did you know that April is the month for canceling out Negative Self-Talk at KBWomen? Well it is. We are casting down strongholds and limiting beliefs that have held our powerful women captive far too long. Will you join us? You may not even realize it, but did you know that 'we act in accordance with the truth as we believe it?' Well it's true, scientifically proven, we do. So what that tells me, according to how I hear women speak about themselves, is that women everywhere believe they are less than blessed and highly favored!

Sadly, we have raised up generations of women that are speaking negative words into their lives in such a way that it is fostering limiting beliefs and sabotaging self efficacy (the positive lens I look at life through). Women everywhere seem to be using words of defeat and doubt when talking about themselves, their businesses and the services they provide. It has caught my attention at an alarming rate most recently. What I am perplexed with is that we were created for so much more, so why aren't we living into God's best?

The dictionary definition of Negative = lacking in constructiveness, helpfulness, optimism, cooperativeness, OR = being without rewards, results, or effectiveness.

Wow, now them are some fightin' words y'all!!

But isn't it interesting that The Word's definition of negative = nothing, the word 'negative' is not even in the Bible! So what is that telling us? Well, we know that life and death is in the power of the tongue (Prov 18:21). And, we know that a wholesome tongue is a tree of life, but perverseness in it breaks the spirit (Prov 15:4). Interestingly, there are so many references in my concordance to the word 'Speak' that I couldn't even count them all! Hokee Dinah! (A special Tammy term :-) God really wants us to be ...

The Lord is holy,
and I am His
.

 Amazing that a holy God desires relationship with us - unholy people! Although if we have accepted His son, Jesus, He no longer sees us as sinful. He sees
us as clean and clothed in righteousness.  Praise Him!
