Removing Roots

Remove the branches of a thorn bush today, and you'll avoid a scrape this year. But next year, you'll face the same problem again. Remove the root of the bush today, and the entire plant will die.

— James Clear —

Reflection

The enemy uses “thorn bushes” to mess with us mentally, physically, socially, financially, and well, you name it. Afterall, its goal is to steal, kill, and destroy

I recall many years ago trying to conquer my addiction problems by “trimming the thorns” through a reduction in use or change of the drugs I was using.

Nothing worked until I completely removed the root causing my problems and that was all mood-altering chemicals.

Questions

What “thorn bush(es)” are you continuing to allow to scrape you?

What prevents you from removing the root of your “thorn bush(es)?”

John 10:10, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
