Ways to grow deep roots in the soil of God's love
Water regularly by staying in God's word!
Don't dry out. Spend time daily reading the Bible to replenish and restore your soul.
Provide yourself with plenty of light by knowing God's truth
As you read His word, memorize scripture, believe in His promises, truth will be revealed to you. Tremendous growth will come from allowing God to shine on your life.
Fertilize as needed by being in Christian fellowship
God puts Christian people in your life to nurture you, to serve as models for you, to encourage you, to pray for you, and to hold you accountable.
