Walking with Roots

12/10/2014

"Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude." -Colossians 2:6-7 (NASB)
I can remember growing up and going to pick out our Christmas tree.  Having space around our home, we would pick a balled tree, one with roots that we could plant outside after our celebrations.  We would browse the different varieties and eventually settle on one that would make the journey to our home and be decorated.  Each tree had a journey, but in order to survive, it needed to have its roots.

Our journeys through life can take many paths.  God has blessed each of us with different talents and these talents take us to different places or, perhaps, along various paths to reach a similar place.  When we are called by God we need to travel with Him, walking in the path that He has called us.  Even as we walk, we need to be sure our roots are in God and sustained by our faith in Him.  Without our roots firmly attached and deeply rooted in His love, grace, and mercy, we can't survive.  However, when we walk with God, rooted in Him, we will be sure to have much for which to be thankful!

Stay attached to your roots and keep them planted in God!

Prayer:
Dear God-

Thank You for the grace and mercy that You have shown to me.  Help me to keep my roots planted in You so that I can continue to grow and show Your love to all those around me.  Through Your Son, Jesus, I pray, amen.
