Living Out the Wonder

by Barbie Acevedo

This year marked my fifth year attending the Radiant Conference. I must say, it was the most beautiful and creative one yet. The conference was entitled "Awaken the Wonder," and it truly lived up to its name. It was not only the most beautiful but it was also filled with an undeniable presence of God.

At our Dream Team Rally for Radiant, we prayed for God to come in a special way, because we understood that His presence was the most important conference aspect, and we were not disappointed. God graciously answered our prayers and powerfully made His presence known!

Throughout the conference, we had the privilege to hear amazing messages from incredible speakers and to experience incredible God moments in worship. But now, as we return to our homes and daily lives, how do we live out the wonder of His presence that we experienced?

Here’s great news! We may have physically left the conference, but the Holy Spirit remains with each one of us. The same God who spoke to us during those powerful moments still speaks to us now. We have an incredible opportunity to continue living in the wonder of God's presence every day.

I encourage you to grab your notes from the conference and meet with a couple Radiant Sisters. Share the sessions of the conference that impacted you the most and discuss what God is asking you to do. Pray for one another and ask the Holy Spirit to empower you to live it out. 

Aren’t you thankful that the presence of God is not limited to a specific location or event? He can show up when two or more are gathered in His name, just as powerfully as He did at the conference. As you continue your walk with God, expect Him to move in your life and the lives of those around you.

So, let’s move beyond reminiscing about the wonder we experienced at the conference. Instead, let’s seek to live it out in our daily lives. Let Radiant Conference 2024 be the catalyst for living in the fullness of God's presence.
