“THERE ARE TWO THINGS WE SHOULD GIVE OUR CHILDREN:
ONE IS ROOTS
AND
THE OTHER IS WINGS.”
Hodding Carter
I am reading that with great joy, because that’s excactly what the Bible, the Word of the Living God is teaching.
In Colossians 2:7 our roots are mentioned and in Isaiah 40:31 it talks about our wings.
Colossians 2:6,7
“So then:
— just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord,
— continue to live in him,
— rooted in him and
— built up in him,
— strengthened in the faith as you were taught,
— and overflowing with thankfulness.”
Isaiah 40:30,31
Even
— youths grow tired and weary, and
— young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the Lord
— will renew their strength.
— They will soar on wings like eagles;
— they will run and not grow weary,
— they will walk and not be faint.”
