Dear eSnowflakes,

“Blessed is the person who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. 

He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.”

                                    - Jeremiah 17: 7-8

"Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving."

                                    - Colossians 2: 6-7

Be rooted in the Holy Spirit, for there is no greater wisdom, no greater peace and no greater love.  

Any root planted in the ground of Caesar will wither and die in the light of the sun.   

Dust unto dust.  

All the power, money, trophies, skin or beauty of Caesar cannot, in the end, be presented to the Lord.  

You may not know all of what the future may bring, but knowing what you need to do in the moment (with the Holy Spirit) will determine the best possible outcome.  

Because you do not have to know how the future will turn out, to know that you did your best and within the will of the Lord.  

There will be many tests in life, but none matters more than your tests of character.  

How closely you walk with the Lord, determines how closely you walk in Wisdom and knowledge of what to do to obtain the best possible outcome.

"For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth comes knowledge and understanding."

                                       - Proverbs 2:6
