More on roots

I have been concerned.  As I water over the summer, I note that at times, roots become visible under the plants.  Usually that plant looks a bit sick.  I read this verse in the Bible and had another thought. Mark 11:20  As they were passing by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots up.

I had never noticed that "from the roots up" part.  The roots should not have been visible to the eye. Roots are supposed to be under ground. What were they doing up?


First picture is a healthy fig tree and below, a dying tree. Wonder if the roots are out of the ground?


I have been going around the garden checking out that roots are hidden.  This verse came to mind.  PS So glad I memorize verses!  Fun, fun, fun.  


I do enjoy life!

Colossians 3: 1-4 Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is,seated at the right hand of God.  Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God.When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.
