Water Your Roots

A friend got me this fern for my baptism gift – along with a letter than said “let this represent your faith as it grows bigger and bigger” and since my recent move it’s been dying.

It’s so easy to get distracted by everyday life, and forgetting to provide adequate means to your life.

Forgetting to feed the faith that drives you.

Moving into your first home, planning a wedding, etc. it piles up, and it’s a lot. You become stressed and you might even spiral.

But be still for just a minute. Take a look around the home you’re trying to build and notice the faith that got you where you withering away in the corner.

Water your roots, get some sun, and let God do the rest.

He never said it would be easy, but He did say trust that He has it – not saying God is gonna plan my wedding but He will direct me in what direction to move, I just need to stop long enough to hear Him speak.

He’s still there. He still loves me.

But He’s probably shaking His head at me as I am being eaten alive by stress when He can handle it.

Friend, I don’t know what’s piling up on you, but take a deep breath and rest in the fact that God’s got you.

Everything that matters is in his hands, the rest is just distraction from the enemy.

You were never meant to handle it alone.

I love you.
