One of the amazing volunteers, Rob, used these words when he signed off on a text to me this past weekend. He represented just one of the 120 amazing people who poured out their lives in Wyckoff so that women could know the love of God and become rooted and grounded in that amazing love.

So, after I heard Rob use those four words, I used them all weekend. I just think those four words may be the mantra I need to keep me rooted and grounded in God’s love and steer me toward the life He has called me to live.

What about you? Do you need those four words written on your heart to keep you rooted and grounded?

Let’s renew our commitment to our Father. Let’s purify our purpose by reminding ourselves that we give our best, we do our best, we live our best … our best for Him. For sister, He is worthy!

Well, speaking of best…

Laura Story was so inspiring and funny and wise. And, her little six-year-old, Josie, recited Psalm 23 first thing Saturday morning and brought down the house!

Shaun Groves gave us eyes to see as he masterfully crafted story and reminded us all of our purpose and privilege as Christ followers—we get to be part of releasing children from poverty in Jesus’ name.

Michael O’Brien led us in worship and made us all cry, laugh, and drop our burdens as we lifted our hands to God.

Our Local Conference Coordinator, Holly Turner, surely gave her best for Him … so did our host church, Cornerstone Christian Church, and all of our co-host churches.

And, as we gave our best, it was amazing to see what God did! We celebrated 3 new sisters in Christ, 36 women who chose to renew their commitment to the Lord, and 75 children sponsored through Compassion International.

On Saturday morning, Michael led us in that old hymn, “I Stand Amazed in the Presence,” and, girl, that sums it up. I stood amazed. I bowed my heart in awe at our good, kind, loving God. He does deserve our best because He always gives us His.

Blessings,

Jennifer and the FGF Team!
