Hey, Sweet Things!
Right this very minute, I am sitting in my dear hair stylist’s chair getting some fresh color. (Oh, I do dearly love fresh color.) That’s what I do for special occasions (and half inch-long roots) and going to Tacoma for our first Living Proof Live of 2011 is a SPECIAL OCCASION. We are excited, nervous, and anxious (and very busy preparing) to see Christ revealed in the Tacoma Dome tomorrow night and Saturday. Please all of you pray for us. I am hopping on a plane this afternoon so that I can get a tiny jump on the time change. Michelle will join me tomorrow.
Because of our wonderful Siesta Scholarship Fund, we have the great joy of offering comp tickets to the event to the first 20 Siestas who call our Living Proof office today during business hours. (Remember Central Standard Time! We are two hours later than you in the West! If you happen to call during the lunch hour, leave a voice mail and they will call you back.) If you would like to come to the Tacoma Dome this weekend for our Living Proof Live but can’t afford a ticket, call toll free 1-888-700-1999 and ask for Kimberly or Susan. And tell them I told you how much I love them and appreciate them when you call.
You guys are my favorite bloggers in all the world. Your mama loves you like nobody’s business.
STAY IN THE WORD!
We will pray!
Your home girls will sorely miss Tuesday nights. I am sorry James is over. It was my first live session with you & it was fantastic. Thank you for being so diligent & passionate about studying & sharing God’s Word. Your love is contagious.
With much love & prayers!
Sweet Beth,
I prayed for you and all attending the LPL conference this weekend, very early this morning. I cannot wait to hear all about it! I had root therapy yesterday. Everything is well and a bit blonder now. 😉
Love you,
Patty
What IS IT about fresh color, a great haircut, or the perfect shade on your nails & toes??!! Somehow you feel, taller, on the inside.
Be blessed, be rested, be protected, be quieted, be strengthened. And God,be You in her.
Be blessed & covered Tacoma Siestas as you enter the Most Holy Place this weekend!
Can’t wait to see you in July in Charlotte, Mama!
I can only imagine that the Seattle/Tacoma area women are beside themselves about you coming to see them!! I’m praying that God will fill the Dome with women that are hungry to hear His Word and I know you’ll be right on target with what He’s put in your heart for the weekend! I would love to be there, but I was able to be at Tuesday Night Bible study this week and was blessed BEYOND words at the number of young ladies that were under the age of 25!! Beth, that is God working in a MIGHTY way in the Houston area! Thank you for sharing your gift of teaching with us, we are truly a blessed community.
Travel safe, Beth and Michelle as you join her tomorrow.
Blessings, Bobbie
Praying for the presence of God to fall in Tacoma!! Tacoma is dear to my heart for where it was in that very place I first set eyes on my husband! 🙂
Thank you for the ALL CAPS reminder to stay in the Word! You said that to me when you called me out in Spokane in the arena. AND I AM! This very day I am writing my talk for the precious women in our Valley for an event next month. And I will be bathing in the Word all day (and have been in preparation).
Thank you for the exhortation this day! And I get my roots done next week.
Love you, Beth! And blessings on Tacoma!!!
Heather from Lewiston
Beth,
Many thanks for being real…even if hair color is not so real…a club that I am also a member of also! Many more prayers going up today for your new journey to those who have already been blessed through you. I am a 40 yr old mom of 4 and just picked up a copy of So Long, Insecurity a few days ago and started journeling today. Of course Insecurity popped up its not so small head when I read to journal in th front of th book! Is she crazy??? For anyone to just read and pick apart???? Ummm,yeah I chose to write in my journal…so let the journey of healing begin 🙂 I am very excited to start the next turn that this will take me. By the grace of God I have been on a road to recovery from sexual, emotional, verbal abuse,fear,worry,anxiety,legalism and anger/bitterness. I believe all starting w/ insecurity. This is where the nxt steps in journey begin. Looking forward to becoming the woman God intented me to be. Make God show you many amazing blessing each day and each moment, and show you without a doubt that you are right where God wants you in th moment.
Praying for safe travels and for God to show Himself in a ridiculously BIG way!
Lydia and I will soon be departing for our “girl time” hotel night (away from our 3 men) before her MRI tomorrow. So covet and deeply appreciate each prayer spoken for her.

Stacey, Lydia is still all over my journal. Over the last week I have no doubt that I wrote her name down at least three times. May Jesus hold you all so tight.
Thank you so, so much for continuing to pray for her.
PRAISE HIM!!! ~ the MRI showed the tumor remains stable, no change.
Can’t wait to see you tomorrow. Have a safe flight.. Freshly done hair is the best. I can just see you walking on stage with the new “DO”.
May your fresh word from God “RAIN” down on us with blessing. We have been having so much of God’s rain here lately the earth is bursting with new flowers and buds on the trees. May our souls burst forth with new growth in the Lord, too.
Jeanette
I was praying for you just this morning. Now I know why! 😉 Hugs, love and blessings for a great time of seeing God’s glory on display!!
I will be praying for your weekend in Tacoma!!! Wish I could go! Praying you’ll come to FL sometime this year, too. We just did your Breaking Free this morning(session 7) and I just wanted to cry all the way through it but couldn’t for the girls sitting around me. I cannot tell you how much this study has meant to me. Thank you! We serve an awesome, merciful God!
Oh I soooo wish I could go this. But being in Georgia it is kinda far to travel. Will be praying for the washing of the Spirit to be there in Tacoma this weekend.
Love & Prayers for the weekend! You’re the sweetest!
I am so excited!! I get to be there at the Tacoma Dome tomorrow night and Sat morning! We have a Bed and Breakfast in Everett, Wa so it can be difficult to get way on the weekend. But my sweet hubby will do the 3 checkins and serve the breakfasts Saturday morning so I can be there! What a treat! I’ve made fresh applesauce, and will bake apple muffins and cookies so he will have those onboard for the guests.
When I was first waking up this morning I was thinking of all the ladies coming to Tacoma. It’s Spring and I need to get the soil cleaned up, fed, and spaded so it’s absolutely ready to give life and growth to whatever I put in that soil. I’m asking God for all of us that we will arrive with our soil well-tilled and ready to receive all He has to deposit into our lives! KZ
That last sentence just made me smile so much!!! Praying for you and the whole team as you to Tacoma. Praying that the anointing would flow over you in fresh waves and that all hearts are being prepared for His presence and His Word. Binding the enemy interfering in any way with the great things that will be accomplished this weekend.
This siesta loves you too, Mama Beth and I absolutely delight in serving Jesus with you.
@ginsamica
Beth…you alaways look beautiful!! But I understand getting that fresh color. It always seems to make the day (and my hair) a little brighter. ;o)
Praying for you and everyone that attends this weekend. Know that God will be with you all and praying He comes in a mighty way!
Blessings,
Kimberly
What? That’s not your real hair color? hahaha
Love you too, Beth!
Praying for God to give y’all an incredible weekend!!
Oh, I wish I could! It would be a fantastic way to begin spring break, but I can’t. I have to be in Spokane by 4:30 on Saturday and there’s no way I’d be back in time! Bummer! Oh, well. Next week I get to hang out with a friend I haven’t seen in a really long time, so that should be fun!
Blessings on the Tacoma event. We look forward to hearing about it.
Praying for safe travels, calm nerves and oh, so lovely roots. I can’t tell you how it blesses me that you get nervous. I guess misery loves company afterall. But that seemingly little tidbit helped give me some courage when I thought surely I would die of fright. I was actually convinced that God had not called me to teach b/c of my nervousness. No such copout allowed. So He shows up and I wear extra deoderant.
Wow…praying for God to do some big and mighty things this weekend!!
Love ya, girl!
You are simply the BEST Beth……roots and all!!!!!!!!!!!
I love you and can’t wait to see your “fresh color” tomorrow! You always look gorgeous!! Don’t those same genes run in this “Siesta Family” too??? I think so!!!! My we’re gonna be a “good-lookin” bunch worshiping Jesus together!!!
There Ain’t NO high like the MOST High!!!!!!!
Hi Beth! I’ve never commented on your blog before, but you should know that I think of you so often and you have been a HUGE influence in my life. I’m really just writing to tell you about that. 🙂 I have done almost all of your studies, but what really changed my life was your book Praying God’s Word. I found freedom from sin and captivity that I had searched for for YEARS and not found. I absolutely credit Jesus for my freedom, but if you weren’t around to write these amazing books and studies inspired by the Holy Spirit, so many of us would still be wandering and searching. You are so dear to me, and you don’t even know me! But I know you love me anyway. 🙂 So that’s mostly what I have to say. I could write pages, but that would be overkill. I also wanted to let you know that I am starting a blog of my own called “Be Set Free,” about freedom in Christ through God’s word. I don’t want to plagiarize anything that you’ve written, but I also HAVE to share what God has done in my life. So of course, I will be directing readers to your books and studies, especially Praying God’s Word. I am not asking for anything from you, I just wanted you to know, because you are sort of the inspiration for it all. 🙂 And I hope God grows my blog and continues to grow your ministry so that more people can find the freedom in Christ that I have. So that’s all. You’re the best!! xoxo Colleen
You are just darling, Colleen. I am full of praise that Jesus sought you out so vividly and is showing you such freedom. He is LIFE. And, young lady, I love you, too.
Root repair does a lot for one’s ego.
Praying for all of you this weekend and for safe travels.
I pray for mighty things from our mighty and awesome God!
Amen to staying in the Word!
Blessings to all,
michelle in VT
BETH!!!!!!! I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE YOU TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been praying for you all morning! Jesus is going to show up BIG!
Yay! Praying for you and the entire LPL team for safe travels, and God’s blessing over the entire event. Can’t wait.
Best wishes in the adventure. Love you, Beth…and I, too, have chemically dependent hair. 🙂
Praying for safe travels for you and Michelle. I am hoping you can relax and enjoy yourself b4 tomorrows event. The Girls in the Great NW are in for a treat! Praying for the HS to reach the hearts of those who really need to hear the word. Looking forward to your Airport people watching stories. God Bless u in all u do, Linda Mazzei
I will be praying for the weekend! I am so thankful for your ministry. 🙂
So glad you’re headed back to the Northwest. I was in the “noisy-Boise” crowd a few years ago and loved all that God shared through you. I’m not able to make it to Tacoma but will be praying for your team this weekend. And I will see you the next time you come west of Denver!
I have never forgotten Noisy Boise.
I am so excited to see you speak again Beth. I saw you in Spokane (The Lord has Spokane) in October and I was truly blessed. I just called and got a “free” ticket for one of the ladies in my bible study. I just want you to know that the Breaking Free study changed my life, God is doing big things!!!
Love you,
Sarah Jean
Blessings on you all as you minister in Tacoma! Have a blast! And thank you so much for all your willing hearts to serve HIM. I can hardly wait until we all worship together in heaven. I hope there is group seating for the siestas! Sorry dear brothers! – it’s a woman thing….
I just thought you should know that I was planning on going this weekend in Tacoma, but our funds have been so tight and so I have been feeling very guilty about spending the money…I just called LMP and asked if they by any chance had those tickets available to those who couldn’t afford to go and I got tickets!! I am just feeling so loved and blessed by God right now… for knowing my hearts desire and showing me he cares even for the little things that are on my heart:)
Thanks so much!! I can’t wait to see you tomorrow night!
Praying for you, sweet Beth! I love you!
Oh, oh! Have you some fun in Washington State!! Drink good coffee, marvel at all the water, soak up the cool Tacoma / Seattle art and architecture and antique scene, have some more coffee, hang with those wonderful Northwest Siestas, and Take Your Umbrella!
Have a blast, all!
I love you sweet sister Beth and can’t wait to hear God’s message to us this weekend through you all. Praying for you 🙂
It would be such a wonder to be there with you in tacoma this weekend. I had an opportunity to go to seattle once, but in the final hour before boarding the plane…turned it down, cause it wasnt where god wanted me to be. i was the last to know it though. i do know how it feels to go somewhere or have it all planned out, and god not planning to go with me, god not “show” up-as it worded somewhere or another, until, of course He did have to show up to rescue me and bring me back-if that makes any sense…sometimes i truly feel that i’m like this kid of god’s that has to be kept on a leash from time to time, just to keep me from disappearing off somewhere…
so, it’s good to see you on here, was concerned for you in those houston storms this week. been having some difficulty lately with focus on the ssmt verses- stuff talking to me in my head- distracting me- pray for me, if you would. thanks. goodnight.
Thanks for the encouragement to stay in the word. Needed that today from my Siesta Momma. Need to cling to His word.
Oh how I would LOVE to be there in person..I am sure Life Center will be there.. our home church whiile be lived in Graham,Wa. Praying for the Lord to shower you all with love!!
it’s kinda like getting dressed up for church. (grin) i have to wear scrubs all week, so when i go to church, it’s fun to wear a skirt and wear my hair pretty.
Hello Beth…I am more than postive that between the hair color and the airplane ride that you won’t get this ‘in time’ but its worth a try…hehe…I just called the 800 number it’s Thursday at 3:27pm in Yakima, WA and I would love to have a ticket to come see you this weekend…you will be just over the hill from me…anyway…I tried…praying and knowing you will BLESS many this weekend! Love you!
The part I didn’t mention was that no one answered the 800 number…and the message said it was Wednesday?!/!
Praying for you and team!!
God bless!
We are so excited to make the trip up to Tacoma tomorrow to join you in worship, praise, and bible study! We are a small group of ladies from Southlake Church in West Linn Oregon. We love you and cannot wait to see what the Holy Spirit will reveal to us this weekend.
Your Sisters in Christ,
Kristen, Leslie, Lauren, Chelle, Nancy, Kristy, Aimee, and Carol.
Have a blessed trip LPL team! I’m praying for each of you and that God is glorified, Christ is revealed and praise to Him can be heard all over Tacoma!
Wishing you a safe trip. Hope you all have tons of fun with the Tacoma Siestas. God bless you all.
I love you too. Will be praying for you and the team.

Hi Beth,
My chruch sisters and I are currently doing your bible study, Jesus The One And Only! I am in awe of the power of God and his presence working through you in this series. I have learned so much about God and my relationship with Jesus. We are in the 6 th week and each week keeps getting better. I love fellowshipping with the ladies at my chruch ( Oakwood Community Chruch in Oxford, Michigan). We have such a blast doing your bible studies and we have done many of them! I have been to see you in Grand Rapids Michigan, what a moving experience! The ladies and I from our chruch were deeply moved and felt God move in that arena! Thanks to you and your team for spreading the word and doing it so beautifully. I also love to watch you with James and Betty Robinson every Wednesday! I love James and Betty Too!
Sincerely,
Your Sister in Christ Jesus
Amy Jo Rogers
So, so, so excited to see you in Tacoma tomorrow night! Safe travels to you. Looking forward to seeing God work in my life this weekend. He always shows up, and that’s what I live for! 🙂
