Recently I was clearing some land to plant a new bush I’ve grown from a seed. The hole I dug had roots from every kind of tree and shrub around the area. As I was pulling up anything that would cause issues for my new baby plant. I quickly realized how deep most of those roots ran. What should have taken a few minutes took over an hour to prepare. The vines and buried roots varied in sizes but all had a grip and were not letting go easily, I was tugging and pulling to dismantle these roots from branches that were running deep, even pulling up some web roots. This reminds me how important it is to stay “rooted” in Gods word daily. So that I will be able to withstand the daily dose of life unhinged here. (Eph 6:10-12)
Being surrendered to Jesus means a life to His service. The channel of communication must be open continually between me and my Savior. Because like the branches and roots that ran deep they draw life and continue to grow and thrive even in dark places. So just like these, we must abide to receive from Him, as His word clearly says. John 15:4-5
Pray, Read, Apply and Repeat.
In Christ love, Amen
