Rooted

“The Lord will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring.” Isaiah 58:11 God is with us through all things! Continuously and steady; restoring our strength! It is cold outside today but think about what a well-watered garden looks like. This is us if we put our faith and trust in Jesus Christ! Ponder on this today as you go through your Saturday! #stayrooted #Heiswithus

Call me old fashion I guess.  I still love cards and invitations that come in the mail.  In the last year or so I have attended three weddings.  All with beautifully unique invitations complete with an RSVP card to secure my attendance.   Have you ever read the parable of the Feast in Luke 14? Jesus is attending a great feast and hears a man proclaiming how great the banquet in the Kingdom of God will be! And his response is known as the Parable of the Great Feast.  These are the red letters – the words of Jesus: “A man prepared a great feast and sent out many invitations. …

As leaders we are often in positions that require us to give others feedback. At my company we say “feedback is a gift.” Sometimes this isn’t easy; especially if it’s related to performance or areas of correction. On the flip side, we can’t always be overly positive with our feedback. This stunts growth and potential. But you CAN lean on God & pray for wisdom and the words you need to speak to lift people up and to help them become the best they can be. Ask God to give you the right words and the right tone. #itsallintheBible #rootedleadership

As we start 2021 and verbally say I want to read the Bible more, we encourage you to…Just Do It! Each day in the Word we get refreshed and reminded God is love – we are to do everything in love. Get rooted now in the Word – it is never too late to start reading the Bible and building a relationship with God. #rootfulness2021 #getrooted #love

Are you running from life, your job, your family and trying to control every step? Do you need to always be in control?! Jacob towards the end of Genesis finally learned to let go and listen to God. He spent his final years in Egypt with his son Joseph, trusting God that this is where he was meant to be. Don’t wait until the end of your life to listen to God, listen now and trust Him. Genesis 46:1-7 was summarized in my teaching part of the Bible as so… “We can not be what God intends us to be and hold on to who we think we should be.”…

Can you imagine the moment of clarity that Joseph had when his brothers stood before him all those years later? When Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers none of them knew what the future would hold. And Joseph never questioned; he just accepted and served right where he was, even from prison. But God knew it all! He had placed Joseph right where he needed to be to become Governor over all the land of Egypt. As he is consoling his brothers and asking them not to be angry with themselves he tells them, “God has sent me ahead of you to keep you and your families alive…

For all the working women out there! Keep bringing God to work during your journey. Go read the story of Joseph in Genesis – stay Rooted – trust Him – thank Him. He has a plan for you!! #patience #humility #gratitude

Please seek Jesus and get to know Him. He is the only way to God, we must BELIEVE in Him to get to the Father – to heaven. If you want to learn more about Jesus – Rooted is here to help. Our life here on earth is so so short, we must prepare now to secure our salvation. #stayrooted #seek #Jesus #heaven #salvation

The gospel of Luke gives us the ability to learn about who Jesus is. The angel Gabriel appeared to Mary and said her son would be called the “Son of the Most High.” Another angel of the Lord told the shepherds that the baby was “the Savior, the Messiah, the Lord.” At the Temple, Simeon told Mary and Joseph that Jesus is a “light to reveal God to the nations.” Jesus Christ came to save ALL people; all the nations. He is a light to the entire world. Continue to celebrate this amazing truth! God loves you and sent his son Jesus to save you.
