Rooted

during the fall noah took a mosaic art class.
he had the freedom to create anything he wanted.

this week he brought home his finished masterpiece.
a small tree on a grassy hillside with deep roots.

when asked what inspired his work his response was "nothing, i just made it."

i told him it reminded me of a scripture~

"Remember that it is not you who supports the root, 

but the root that supports you."  
Romans 11:8

to which noah replied, "and the tree doesn't even know it- that all that root is there supporting it." 

sigh.  lately i have been that tree; unaware of all that Root supporting me. 

but God...
in his goodness gave me a boy, who "just made" a piece of art, and used it speak truth into my life...
my Deeply Rooted life.
