“But rains pour down upon us, storm clouds darken the skies and we get lost in the storm. Have you been there? Wandering in the darkness, crying out only to be greeted with utter silence?"

~ Lesley Hitchens ~



"God puts rainbows in the clouds so that each of us in the dreariest and most dreaded moments can see a possibility of hope.”

Roots

The sermon I heard on Sunday was about father's day. Yet one quote I'm going to go on today is the following:

"Character is formed in the root ball of the oak tree that we are. Others only see the trunk up. What are we allowing to nourish us in our roots?"


That was well said.... There is another way to look at the roots too. The thing that holds us down when the storms come in and the winds of life try to blow us down. The deeper the roots go, the better it will hold during the storms.


How far down are our roots? What are we feeding our roots? Good wholesome food from God or everything the world says to feed it? How strong will we stand when the storms come? That's the test......


Blessings!  Short and sweet tonight....
