Deeper

Boys, make-up, and getting along with your friends are really important to me. But even more important—for today and for eternity—is your relationship with God. Do you know how much God loves you? Do you love Him in return—with your entire life?

If you’ve never given your heart completely to God—if you’ve never repented and asked God to be the King of your life—please take some time to check out The Bible Project. It’s time to stop running from God and start running to Him instead!

When we have deep roots into God, we won’t get knocked down by the crazy stuff that happens in life.

Blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit.
Jeremiah 17:7-8 (New Living Translation)

I’m not saying things like rejection, betrayal, divorce and loss won’t hurt. We’ll still feel pain. We’ll still get scared sometimes. But we’ll know that God is bigger than our biggest problems and trust Him to see us through. “Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought.” When our roots go deep into God, we’ll keep producing spiritual fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, faithfulness gentleness and self-control—even when it’s thundering all around us. Amen?

Love,
