What does miracle grow feed? It’s not the leaves or branches of a plant, it’s the roots. It conditions the soil with proper nutrients and encourages rapid growth. If we could all take root in such a conditioned environment our [tag]manhood[/tag] could truly flourish.
As a man, we need to find out how to enrich our lives so we can take root and grow into real men. Some roots grow faster than others, but they all serve the same purpose. And every man needs strong roots.
“The man who concentrates on the root system of his life is going to bear fruit upward, but if he concentrates on the eye-appealing foliage he may end up a rootless failure.” Robert D. Foster
This wonderful quote that speaks to the heart and cause of man. So many [tag]men[/tag] focus on the outward view of their life, but true results come from a solid foundation deep within us. If you are serious about becoming a better husband and father, a hearty root system allows you to support your [tag]family[/tag]. It will also help you weather storms that blow through you [tag]life[/tag].
Some plants take root wherever the wind blows them and I’m always amazed when I see plants growing in the oddest places. You’ll see them growing in cracks, around rocks and even in plain ol’ dirt. Whether you have roots in solid ground or in an odd place, you must have determination for your roots to flourish. Your wife and [tag]children[/tag] will appreciate the stability that will come with your determination and patience.
You will also need a good gardener to grow your root system. Grow your [tag]faith[/tag] in [tag]God[/tag] and trust him that he will nourish your roots and help you grow as a father and [tag]husband[/tag]. John 15:1-8 talks about Gods ability to do just that by “pruning” branches that produce fruit so even more fruit can be produced.
I need those stronger roots…haven’t been weathering the storms all that well.
@ Stephen:
Don’t we all!
I wish it only took a couple of seasons for our roots to grow but I’m starting to learn that they take much longer.
Men just need to be aware of where are roots are growing so we can take care of them and be the foundation that out family needs.
