Colossian 2:6-7 (NLT) “6And now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as Lord, you must continue to follow Him. 7Let 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.”
Receiving Christ as Lord of your life is the beginning of your Christian walk. But you must continue to follow Him by being rooted, built-up, and strengthened in your faith through His Word. Christ wants to guide you and help you with your daily struggles. Just as plants draw nourishment from the soil through their roots, so do we draw our life-giving strength through Christ. The more we rely on Christ and His teachings, we receive more strength from Him. If Christ is our strength, we will be free of worries and full of and thankfulness.
