In our world, change is constant, and uncertainty is inevitable, making spiritual stability seem almost unattainable. However, God’s Word invites us to go deeper—by being rooted in Christ rather than in our circumstances.
To be grounded involves more than merely hearing the truth. It entails being established—firmly anchored, deeply rooted, and capable of weathering life’s storms. In the Christian journey, grounding arises from living out the Word of God, rather than merely being familiar with it. As Paul notes in Colossians 2:7(AMP), we must be “rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith.” In rural areas, we grasp the value of deep roots. A tree that fails to dig deep into the soil cannot withstand fierce winds or drought. Similarly, a believer who engages with the Word superficially won’t endure when faced with trials. Being grounded signifies enduring spiritual strength over time.
