And
now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord, you must continue to
follow him. 7 Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on
him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you
will overflow with thankfulness.
- Colossians 2:6–7 (NLT)
Depth
doesn’t happen by accident. It’s a daily choice—one we make in small, ordinary
moments. Just as we received Christ, we are invited to continue walking with
Him, letting our roots grow deep and allowing our lives to be built on Him.
Even Jesus, in the midst of crowds, needs, and constant demands, intentionally broke away from the busyness to spend quiet moments with His Father. If He needed those times of stillness, how much more do we? We cannot experience God fully if we remain in the shallows, skimming the surface of faith. It is in the depths—away from the noise—where we are strengthened, renewed, and reminded of who we belong to.
As this week comes to a close, may we resist the pull of hurry and distraction and choose depth instead. A heart rooted in Christ does not drift. It grows strong, steady, and alive—built on Him and strengthened by grace.
