So then just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in Him, rooted & built up in Him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, & overflowing with thankfulness. (Col. 2:6&7 NIV)
To live in Christ you have to have a strong foundation or root system. That comes from time spent in Gods word, time in prayer, time in a bible based church with other believers to help you grow & support you. At this time in history it is as important as ever to know what you believe. There are different messages coming from all over saying that their way is good. They're trying to tell you that there are a lot of ways to heaven. That's not what Gods word says. You haver one rooted in Gods word.you have to be able to draw on your faith in the most High God when your strength is running low. There will be times when you feel like you want to give up & that's when you have to know that Gods strength is sufficient. That will be where thankfulness will come from because you know that God will deliver you & bring you out stronger. But it all comes from your root system. Water it, feed it, & let it grow stronger from the blowing winds. Be rooted!
