Let your roots grow down into Him, and let your lives be built on Him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness. Colossians 2:7 (NLT)
It is said that the Chinese Bamboo Tree does the first three to four years of its growth underground. Then, in year five or so, it grows up to 80 feet in a span of 12 weeks! The comparison to leadership development and growth is this: Most of the hard work (the “taking root,” if you will) in leadership happens for years “underground” (behind the scenes) before the fruit of the labor is visible to others. A contrast to the Chinese Bamboo Tree, of course, is the weed, which seems to shoot up overnight but has no roots and hence no real staying power.
