We Grow: A Journey of Drawing Closer to God

DAY 296 OF 365

Day 296 of 365

​​Jeremiah 17 compares those who trust in human strength to a shrub in the desert, while those who trust in God are like trees planted by water, bearing fruit in every season. This image reminds us of the strength and resilience that comes from placing our trust in God, regardless of circumstances. In Colossians 2, Paul speaks of being “rooted and built up in Him,” calling believers to rely on Christ as their foundation. The Holy Spirit nurtures this deep-rooted faith, sustaining us in seasons of drought and difficulty.

Trusting in God doesn’t mean our lives will be free of challenges; it means we have an unshakable foundation that holds us steady through life’s storms. The Spirit strengthens us to endure with hope, providing peace that surpasses understanding. When we trust in God, we’re empowered to flourish, displaying His love and faithfulness to those around us.

Today, invite the Holy Spirit to deepen your trust in God. Choose to root yourself in His promises, allowing His strength to sustain you. May your life be a beacon of hope, inspiring others to place their trust in the One who never fails.
