As we sat waiting for our food to come we started chatting about our new team name. Stephanie Archer started off by saying that she had the impression our name should have to do with femininity (because we are an all girls team) and strength. Vallory shared next from Isaiah 61 and the image of being oaks of righteousness. I had asked the Lord for a song about our team and he had me listen to the song Tree by Justin Rizzo. Tenille had a revelation of the name “Beautifully Rooted in strength” but it felt too long. So I have the pleasure of introducing team…
BEAUTIFULLY ROOTED
From left to right it goes: Amanda (Team Leader), Vallory, Tenille, Me, Linsey, Kayla, Stephanie.
For our team I am claiming:
Isaiah 61:3c and Psalm 1:3
“That they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified.” ~ Isaiah 61:3c
“She is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that she does, she prospers.” ~ Psalm 1:3
And these words from the song Tree by Justin Rizzo.
Unmovable, unshakable
Let my roots go down deep
Unmovable, unshakable
In You
I want to be like a tree
Planted by the streams
Of living water
This will be my song God
This will be my prayer
Until the end, until the end
I desire to be so rooted in the Lord that my walk will not be shaken by anything.
