Pentecost was earlier this week and it was the midpoint of the year on God's calendar. It was the transition of the year where the two sides come together, which reminds us of our covenant with God. In Ephesians 3 the apostle Paul prayed for the people to be rooted and established in love, and in Deuteronomy 7 God said he gave the people a covenant of love. God has given us this covenant of love and this time of year is a reminder that we must be rooted and established in it. With trees they must grow a whole root system underneath the ground to support the tree and an established tree is one that is grown, fixed, immovable, and consistent.
This time of year is a reminder to be steadfast and fixed in our covenant of love with God. A covenant is a partnership or agreement where the two sides come together. Our covenant of love is to receive God's steadfast love and let it flow through us to others.
