Rooted and built up

Colossians 2:6-12

To me a yard is for growing plants that shade or bloom, that do not need continual watering or mowing. I like to keep all the plants that the Lord chooses to grew in my yard, as well as the ones that I plant myself but some of the free gifts from nature just have to come out. The only real way to eradicate a particular botanical vermin is to take out its roots.
A cottonwood tree grew too near to our house. It got the chop but the roots were left now each root is sprouting multitudinous baby cottonwoods each one supported and nourished by the roots of the original parent.
I am glad God is my root.
