Dandelions are a pest. They can have their flowers cut off and they just grow new ones. They are tough and keep on spreading. They can easily take over an allotment - and other people's too!<BR/><BR/>It is interesting the point about roots. For a weed, dandelions have relatively long roots. But compared to other plants (like mighty oaks) the roots are very shallow.<BR/><BR/>So we need <I>some</I> roots. We need to make sure that we sink deep into God and grow strong and secure so that nothing can dig us up. But at the same time as that our vision has to be "where next?" And as soon as possible we are ready for the next place.<BR/><BR/>A dandelion can take root very quickly. Flowers can appear in a couple of weeks. So it is rooting and is very quickly ready for the next breath of wind.<BR/><BR/>An awesome picture. A church that is prepared for the wind at all times. A church that is prepared to land and grow in the most hostile of environments - and is prepared to grow even when it is not welcome.
