Beneath the Surface

I had a great conversation with a couple of pastors today on the importance of developing deep spiritual roots in our lives. We used the image of a well-rooted plant.

Here were some thoughts:

1. What really matters is what is beneath the surface.

2. I focus too much on the fruit.

3. I need to focus on growing deeper roots.

4. If I grow deeper roots in Christ, the fruit will come.

5. When God cuts you back, grow deeper roots.
