Every year I leave Restoration Generation, thinking it can’t possibly get better, and somehow it always does. This year moved me in ways I didn’t expect. Sammy Adebiyi said something that I can’t stop thinking about: “If you could see what God sees when He looks at you, your jaw would hit the floor, and your mind would be blown by what you see.”

That message shook me in the best way. It is so hard for me to fully accept the unconditional love and endless grace of our Heavenly Father. Yet when I get even a small glimpse of it, everything changes. I have never known a love like that.

A huge thank you to Tom Henderson, the entire ResGen board, John Maxwell, Tim Tebow, Emjae Ross, Jonnie W. , and Sammy Adebiyi. Your messages and your presence reminded me who I am and how deeply I am loved. My faith feels renewed. ❤️
