I am planting myself in the roots of Christ I hope that you will join me.
Planted
Plant yourself in Christ and
you will reap a bountiful harvest.
When you plant a plant do you
just plant it or do you figure out where it needs to be planted? Plants need certain things to grow. To grow to its full potential a plant needs
to be in the right climate, it needs the correct soil, it needs nourishment and
it needs air. If you plant a plant in
the sun and it needs shade, it will wither.
If you plant a tropical plant in Alaska you know what will happen. The conditions are very important for the
plant to prosper and grow
We are much like plants. We are yet but a seed that is planted in our
mother’s womb and then we take months to grow into the person we are. After we are united with the outside world
many experiences make us the people we are.
We learn many lessons in life and know what conditions we need to make
us prosper.
To me there is only one thing
that I need to be planted in to survive.
For survival I must be planted with Christ. When we are planted with Him we know through
His word what we should and shouldn’t do.
We know what we need and what we don’t.
He teaches us many things that will help us to grow to our full
potential.
If your roots aren’t wrapped
around Christ it isn’t too late. You can
begin today. Let Him give you the
nourishment you need to give you growth.
Through Him all things are possible.
Romans 8:28
New International Version (NIV)
28 And we know that in all things God works for the
good of those who love him, who[a] have
been called according to his purpose.
Dear God I want to be planted with You. I want you to take my roots and wrap them in
Your word. Teach me to learn to trust
every season that I am in and realize that you are in the center of every
season. Guide me to live for today not
worrying about tomorrow or regretting yesterday.
