Congratulations. Your gift of a new day is here. Ready to live it big. You're listening to the Big Life

Devotional podcast. Now, here's Pamela to get you fired up for all God has available for you today.

Well, good morning, beautiful. Welcome to a brand new day of life.

Happy Tuesday, my friends.

I missed you so much yesterday.

There was not a new devotional episode yesterday.

I was traveling home from retreat.

So you get me fresh off the most amazing big life adventure ranch retreat. It's a miracle I have any bit of voice left. After all that

yelling and laughing and singing and cheering people on, my spirit is absolutely full. Like I am

overflowing from that experience. And I'm going to get to share a little

bit of that experience with you this morning. In today's devotional, we're going to make it special.

So I'm going to recap some of the experiences of retreat, some of the lessons of retreat for the rest of the world

to get to experience what we did. So the title of today's episode of the Big Life Devotional

podcast is, that's the truth. So on Saturday at our Adventure Ranch retreat in Oklahoma, for our main session, we gathered on the

banks of the river. They're just this beautiful, grassy area, a little bit shaded by the trees.

It was perfect weather. And we brought out chairs and blankets and just gathered in close on the

banks of the river. And we talked about

the truth that there is an attack on each of our identities, of who we really are, who we were

created to be, how God sees us individually as his girls that all of that is under attack it is the

target of the enemy of our soul because in this world all good comes under attack you plant a a beautiful garden. What happens? The weeds come in to attack it.

That's the rule of this world. All good comes under attack. And who you are created to be is good. God has good plans. He likes who he created you to be. So now who you are

is under attack because it's good and all good comes under attack and you can feel it in your life.
