Be Rooted in Christ
“As therefore you received Christ Jesus, the Lord, walk in him, rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, even as you were taught, abounding in it in thanksgiving.” (Colossians 2:6-7 WEB)
Many people want the fruits right away, but they are not willing to spend the time to grow the roots.
Roots will always come first to support the stem, leaves, and fruits.
If a stem were to bear fruit immediately without having roots, it would collapse straightaway.
Shortcuts are not a good thing if you are not able to handle them, and having something earlier than the right time is actually detrimental to your well-being.
Be rooted in Christ, learning more Gospel truths each day, so that you know who you are in Christ and what you have in Him.
This way, no matter how fierce the winds are in the world, you will remain standing strong.
If you don’t see the fruits, perhaps your roots are not strong enough to support the whole plant yet. Allow the Holy Spirit to teach you and prepare you to bear good fruit to God. If you want to be strong and stable, receive the water of God’s word.
