Roots……
As I was on my walk this morning, just working through some hard things I got home and noticed the branch was broken down the tree. I had a thought signifying how broken we are in this world from roots of unhealthy belief systems, beliefs that bring fear and shame and guilt.Then I got to my flower bed and noticed there was some w**ds and started pulling them and noticed a few tough ones and, you know, as you're pulling them out, they break off, and I heard, don't give up there….Keep digging till you get the whole root. And then, as I was doing that, my little shovel I was using broke and I heard again, don't give up. Keep digging till you get the root. And then the little rosebush I have there started scratching me with thorns. And again, I heard, don't let that stop you. And then as I was pulling another w**d, I noticed it had a root all the way to another beautiful little bush in my flower bed and just reminding me of all these w**ds that are trying to choke out life. God is so beautiful and what he can show us in nature. Take this and see how it applies to your life, and maybe how it might be speaking to your heart. Next, I came across my rocks in my garden, where it's written strength, hope, courage, dream, faith and love….just reminding me of all the goodness and grace that God gives us in the most powerful of all being LOVE!!That's all we need!! I had a few more tough w**ds I couldn't get out and all of a sudden my shovel went missing. I looked and looked and looked and finally found it. It just reminded me of the tools God gives us and to make use of them. Don't allow them to be lost. Hold on to them and take care of them Those people he puts in your life, remember to care of their hearts. As I was finishing, I came to a small tree, and as I tried to pull up the roots around it, I started to uproot the whole tree, which brought me a little anger, reminding me of so many broken families and how these w**ds in life are trying to destroy families. So fight for your family, It’s really that simple. Fight for them in love. I think often we look too much for the warfare, giving it power.. But I keep hearing something the Lord shared with me recently… overcome evil with good!!! Restore your relationships. W**d out unhealthy relationships.. Stand strong in who God created you to be!!! Know your identity by knowing him more! Thanks for reading. This was an audio but I couldn’t get it to download so I figured out a way to share it anyway because it felt important ❤️🤗😇
