Our "Star Performer!"

by | Feb 19, 2011 | This Lefe Family

Last Saturday, our school’s two show choirs performed and spent the day at a competition at a local high school.  The show choir Ali is in performed at 8:55 a.m.  Bill, Zach, and I picked up my sister-in-law, Stacie, and six year old niece, Reagan for the performance, as they live in the town that show choir competition was held.  It was fun to have them join us. 

Reagan sat on my lap as we watched Ali and the rest of the group perform from the third row.  Of course, my attention was focused on Ali.  She did wonderful…full of smiles, bright eyes, singing and dancing perfectly (I thought anyway), crisp moves with “jazz hands”, and even winks every now and then to the crowd (and to Reagan)!  I couldn’t have been more proud of her.  And watching Reagan as she watched Ali, gave me incredible joy.  Reagan had a smile on her face almost the entire time, as her eyes were fixed on Ali.

I didn’t find out until later that evening that during their critique time after their perfmance, Ali was awarded the Star Performer Award for her show choir!!  In each show choir, one performer was chosen as the “Star Performer”–that one who stood out and performed well!  We were all so very proud of her, especially her Mom! 

Congratulations Ali!  You are so deserving of this award!  I am so completely proud of you…not only for your achievements, but for who you are as a person!  I’m glad God chose me to be your Mom!!! 🙂

Somedays it's easy to put God on the back burner. Without God's Word renewing our minds, we can slip into defaulting to wordly and anxious thinking. In fact, that's always what our brains will do. 

Today is a good day to renew our minds again. Let's open our Bibles and see what God has to say. It can literally change our lives and our perspectives.

What's your favorite Scripture? Share it below.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “I’m not enough... I’ll never get it right... I’m failing at everything”?

You’re not alone—and those words aren’t the truth.

Join us for She Speaks Life, a special morning created for women just like you—women who are tired of the negative self-talk and ready to replace it with God’s truth. Together, we’ll learn to speak life over ourselves, find freedom in our true identity, and encourage one another in a space full of grace.

Come as you are. Leave refreshed, encouraged, and reminded of the power your words hold.

Bring a friend. There’s a seat for you. 💛

Are you looking at your life through a smudged window? 🪟

Negative thoughts. Discouragement. Comparison.

Sometimes they blur the view and make us forget what’s true.

But God invites us to see life through His eyes—full of hope, purpose, and peace.

🎧 This week on the Encouragement for Real Life Podcast, we’re doing some soul spring cleaning—with our perspective.

✨ Episode 194: Washing Windows When Your Perspective Becomes Cloudy is live now!

Feeling a little discouraged today?

You’re not forgotten. You’re not overlooked.
God is still near—still providing, still working, still weaving good into your story.

You don’t have to figure it all out.
Just take the next step, trust His timing, and know this:
He hasn’t let go of you.

Sometimes all it takes is one frustrating moment to shift our whole mood, right?
But wait... maybe the whole day isn’t bad… maybe it's just a rough patch.

Let’s zoom out today.
There’s still good here.
There’s still joy to be found.
Don’t let five minutes steal 24 hours.

Today can still be a great day.

So many women are waiting for the right time—for more clarity, less chaos, or a better version of themselves.

But friend, the abundant life isn’t on hold until things are perfect. God does some of His best work in the middle of the mess. Your right now is the perfect place to begin.

What’s one small way you can embrace your right now today?

I'm @julielefebure, and I'm here to help you live the abundant life Jesus came to give you. Follow for more.

I woke in awe today because in those first eye-opening moments, I pondered the truth of Easter. 

Jesus defeated death... for me. For me.

Why? How? All the things I've done, said, thought... I am undeserving of this kind of gift.

But I guess that's the point, isn't it? If I deserved it, it wouldn't mean as much as it does today. He rose from the grave because I didn't deserve it. He rose from the grave, so someday I will, too. In the meantime, because I believe in this truth, I get to live in the hope of eternal life with Him. Forever. 

What a hope. What a love. What a Savior.
