Tree

Was just sitting on the bus when I got reminded of the function of roots. *sorry ar, science teacher is like that one.* :D

The function of roots is to help the plants to absorb water and nutrients from the ground and help the plant be firmly rooted to the ground.

That reminds me of the 2 illustrations that pastors gave.

One is about breaking the pot and be firmly rooted to the local church, house of God. and the other, the powerful and dramatic illustrations of seeking water and hence bearing fruit.

Trees never had a problem with bearing fruits.
To them, its always about breaking through cement floor, going deeper into the ground to get water. then Fruits will start popping like nobody's business.

Same goes for our Christian walk,
Seek and Receive, desire and yearn for the Living Water of the Lord, the environment and the situations that is happening around you will soon mold you to grow the fruits of the Spirit.

Be expanded, to the left, to the right, Enlarged in capacity and grow stronger Tenacity!

Got to memorize the list of fruits of the Spirit.
Gal 5:22 - 23a
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

Hmm... this is a good verse to memorize too... watch yourself...

Gal 5:19 - 21
Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders,drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.


Be Bless!
