Rooted

Ephesians 3
I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,  may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

In this passage we totally get a true definition of what it looks like to be established – immovable – unshakeable.

Strengthened in the Spirit
Rooted in love
Power with the Lord’s holy people
Filled with the fullness of God

Wow, it’s important to stay in community with others who love Christ and to constantly stay in the truth of his Word, so that we are strong and full. We might bend with the wind, but we will pop right back up because our roots run deep.

Pretty cool, right?
