- Good afternoon Fowler Family!
- Today is Godwink Sunday – the day we share where we see God in our midst
- Annie Jones shared a Godwink with us – she was sitting on a bench in prayer and Pam Coit drove by on a golf cart delivering groceries
- For those of you who have not met Pam, she is Nicole’s executive assistant who has worked at Fowler for 15 years this June
- Annie wrote “What a surprise to see Pam. She stopped and we chatted for a minute…I haven’t seen her in quite a while…it was a nice pepper-upper.”
- God brings people in our lives for minutes, hours, years and their impact can be lasting or fleeting; but it is never accidental
- Who is God bringing into your life?
- I think the biggest Godwink for this week is how God provided for us today, long ago through a Dallas pioneer named Juliette
- This coming Friday, we will celebrate the birthday of Juliette Peak Fowler, our visionary namesake who was born on May 8, 1837
- Juliette was a faithful Christian woman who experienced tragedy in her own life yet looked for God in the midst of her pain
- Through faith and hope, God turned her sorrow to good
- Juliette purchased this land in 1885 for the purpose of providing a home for widows and orphans in Dallas
- She had looked into the eyes of the vulnerable and responded with love and compassion
- Juliette couldn’t have envisioned that years later, this place bearing her name would still be here
- She couldn’t have envisioned that Fowler would survive the pandemic of 1918, two world wars and many other world events
- Or that you would be living here, and Fowler people would be loving each other through another world crisis today
- Yet, here we are; God’s love is alive and well in all of us
- Stay tuned for more of Juliette’s inspiring story later this week
- Let’s make it a great day – on purpose
