Day 2: Roots That Hold in the Storm
Reading: Colossians 2:6-7; Jeremiah 17:7-8
Devotional: Shallow roots produce shallow faith. The rocky-ground hearer receives the word with immediate joy, but when pressure comes, they wilt. Deep roots aren't developed through emotional highs but through consistent, often mundane, spiritual disciplines. Reading Scripture when you don't feel like it, praying through dry seasons, gathering with believers when it's inconvenient—these build the root system that holds you firm. Storms don't create your foundation; they reveal it. The question isn't whether trials will come, but whether you'll have roots deep enough to withstand them. Today, commit to one discipline that deepens your roots, regardless of how you feel.
