Assignment:  Pray about someone you can invite to the next session of Rooted.  How can you tell them how Rooted has impacted or changed you?

Thank Jesus for the way He met your needs, became a friend to you, and moved you spiritually.  Ask God to help you tell your story this week.

Lord Jesus, Your servant blesses and praises Your holy name.  Make known those whom You desire to be in  the next discipleship study.  Provide words and ways to reach out to them with love.  Thank You Abba, for meeting Your servants needs.  Lord Jesus, Thank You for true friendship and thank You Holy Spirit for the guiding into deeper spiritual waters.  Holy Spirit, continue to guide this tongue and heart towards Jesus.  In Jesus’ name, amen.
