REFLECTION 03Roots Beneath the Drought
Visible conditions do not determine the supply of a soul rooted in God.
THE SCRIPTURAL LENS
“He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes.”Jeremiah 17:8 · ESV
THE WORD BENEATH THE IMAGETo trust with confident security—to lean the full weight of one’s life upon a reliable source.
THE REFLECTION
“Natural strength can exhaust its supply. The soul that seeks God remains connected to a Source strength cannot manufacture.”— Bishop W. F. Houston Jr.
The drought is real, but it is not the deepest reality. What appears above the soil cannot explain the hidden architecture of a life that has learned where to send its roots.
Natural strength depends upon visible supply. Spiritual rootedness receives from a Source that conditions cannot manufacture and circumstances cannot cancel.
Do not judge your future by the temperature of the present season. The question is not whether heat has come. The question is whether your roots know where the water is.
