ROOTED IN LOVE!

Rooted in Love!
May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love an founded securely on love, (Ephesians 3:16-18, AMPC)
A former FEC pastor familiar with the writings and struggles of Anne Lamont, sometimes would quote her, without endorsing all she says. That's what I'm doing here.
  • Love is a root system. (p. 8)
  • Love is compassion. (p. 9)
  • Love is what our soul is made of, and for. (p.10)
  • Love is a piece of toast and a diamond. ((p. 10) Think either. (DAL)
Shared love, rooted in Christ, with other believers is a reflection of God's love. (John 13:34-35) Think fellowship. Genuine love for one another that mirrors Jesus' love. Being there for each other during hardships and struggles. Over a piece of toast or a cuppa tea. For a few minutes or an hour.
Love is an action!
Love is rooted in the Father's Son, our Savior, Jesus Christ.

ROOTED!

"Sink your roots in Him and build on Him. Be strengthened by the faith you were taught, and overflow with Thanksgiving." (Colossians 2:7, NOG)

As it says in Matthew 13:3-6, (paraphrased) when there is "no depth of soil, roots wither away."

May the Lord extend my roots to the Living Water today as I  trust in His Spirit to guide me to flourish with my mind rooted and filled with Scripture to stay steady through life's ups and downs.

"Yes" and "Amen." To God be the glory.
