rooted.

day 195.

made a present :) i miss making hand-made crafts or anything hand-made for that matter. you feel so satisfied using your two hands.

I had the opportunity to hear a missionary speak about the wisdom she obtained while she was in China. It was inspiring to hear her, for one thing, announce her age to the entire congregation, but mainly that no matter how old you are, God has something to teach you :P
She talked about the passage in Colossians 2:6-33. About being rooted. To dig deeper into the word of God. We read it in NIV and in the Message. haha, wow, The Message, slap in the face yo. It was slightly funny listening to Pastor Bill reading it. hahah. But YES! become rooted In God, be built up in Him!, and be strengthened in faith as we are taught! I believe this is why I'm reading Proverbs. Every single verse is wisdom! It makes you think! It makes you think deeper! It challenges you! IT'S WISDOM! ahhhh :) God, you're so cool :)

^{Ephesians 3:14-19
14}For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, ¹⁵from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, ¹⁶that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, ¹⁷ so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, ¹⁸may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, ¹⁹and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Thanks, Paul. THANKS, GOD.
