Picture: Tree (the seed and roots)
Scripture: Matthew 13:1-9,18-23; Jeremiah 17:5-8
Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
Take a quiet minute to focus on the underground elements of a tree: the seed, the soil, and the roots. With this in mind, consider the importance of being spiritually planted in God’s rich soil.
Where is your seed planted?
How deep are your roots?
Write a prayer using the daily verses as a reference:
Therefore, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:58
Dear Lord,
Keep us from the world's spin of vanity--working, working, working, for our own merit or status. Rather, may we decide to do our daily work for your glory, seeking to please you with our motives, our attitudes and our actions. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
