Have you ever gone online and registered to see where your ancestors are from? Who you really are? What makes up your DNA? Well…. I’m not sure, but my brother might of done this for us. He is always telling me where we originated on our Mom’s side, then our Dad’s sign. I’m not smart enough to know if his “useless knowledge”, as I pick on him and say, is true or not!

I do know that I have always been taught that my roots should run deep with God. He needs to be intertwined in all I do. I really didn’t think that was such a big deal until God made me a Momma. I did know how important it was, but I guess my perspective seemed to change and I was able to connect on a different level than before.

As I watch my boys grow, which by the way is way too fast, I have a different perspective on how my boys need to see where my roots are embedded. I view differently what it means for my life to be built upon Him. I always connected with how my faith would grow deep with strength especially standing firm in His truth, but I am overflowing with thankfulness the opportunity God has given me to raise these two boys of ours.

Where do your roots run? How deep do they go?

“Let your roots grow down into Him, and let your lives be built upon Him, then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.” -Colossians 2:7
