Every year (for the last four) I have chosen a new word to make my focus for the upcoming months. This year my word was ROOTED, and as each day passes the Lord is faithful to teach me more and more. I’m learning that it truly matters where you send your roots. Partially my roots still reside in the soil of years ago. A dehydrated and vacant place, able to offer no new growth or life.

But every day, God is eager to give you the strength to move on and grow roots somewhere lasting, somewhere beyond a world that’s passing.
