26 | Rooted Moment - Rooted, Even in the Rift

“Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.” — Galatians 5:25

✨Rooted Jesus Girls,✨

Sometimes the soil under our feet feels cracked and dry. Relationships feel strained. Silence stings. Discouragement lingers.

In those moments, it’s tempting to believe the lie that struggle disqualifies us. But Galatians 5 reminds us: our very life comes from the Spirit—and because of that, we can keep in step with Him, even in the rift.

In this short devotional, I share a recent early morning in my prayer garden, sitting in the dark before dawn, reminded that roots do their deepest work underground, unseen. Staying rooted doesn’t mean life is comfortable. It means choosing to stay aligned with the Spirit, even when the surface looks barren.

🌿 In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How Galatians 5:25 invites us to keep in step with the Spirit when life feels heavy.

• A reflection on roots, silence, and God’s unseen work in us.

• Practical ways to remain rooted: Scripture, silence, small acts of faithfulness, and resisting lies of disqualification.

• A gentle reflection prompt to help you name where God is asking you to stay rooted right now.

📓 Reflection Prompts for You

• Where do you feel most discouraged in this season?

• Where might God be inviting you to stay—not because it’s easy, but because His Spirit is present there?

🌿 Closing Reminder
Roots don’t wait for perfect conditions. They grow in the unseen. And so do we.
Your life comes from the Spirit, and He will never leave you behind.
