Sunday's Comin'

Behind our church, we have a beautiful large oak tree. I often wonder its age as many believe it to be at least 80 years old. It is obvious that it has been around for a long time. How can it stand for so many years, not moved by drought, rain, ice or snow? It is able to remain strong and endure because of its roots. We can't see them, but they run deep.

I love a beautiful deep green lawn, so I did some research to find out how to have a better lawn. Most articles said to train the roots to go deep. Strong deep roots produce healthy strong plants. Paul encouraged the Colossian church to be rooted in Christ, to be established in Him. If we are to grow, our roots must be firmly established in Christ, nothing else. Join us on Sunday as we talk about Being Rooted and Built Up in Christ (Colossians 2:1-7).

NEW! This coming week, I will be doing a daily devotional on Colossians 2:1-7. You can find it on my blog, beginning on Monday, June 8th. If you would prefer to receive the daily devotional by email, please contact Lisa Kody: lkody@gracecommunitychurch.org
See you on Sunday,
