The deeper the roots, the stronger the tree


The deeper the roots, the greater storm it will survive
Starved by drought and disaster
This tree is now a master
Of the elements; Standing tall come wind or rain
All the hardship was not in vain
In the thirsty days its roots dug deeper
When the strong wind came, (that mighty reaper)
Other trees fell but this one stood tall
Unmovable like a defense brick wall



Deep roots are the secret of standing tall
Deep roots; the invisible strength unseen on the surface
Knowledge and faith quietly fed
Power and character building up inside
Roots growing deep and wide
Its not all about what you surface
The surface can be deceitful
Like on so many trees that fell
who could tell that they wouldn't stand?



The secret is the foundation
The eternal Rock - solid and eternally true
The word and prayer giving life to you
Daily doses slowly building you from the inside
The more growth, the better in warfare
You can't fatten the cow on the day of battle
You can't study when the exam has begun
Training should begin before the storm has come
The deeper you go the stronger you'll be
How deep are your roots?
