Today’s reflection is titled:
Bamboo Breakthrough

“Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.” – Galatians 6:9

Gen-Z, have you ever heard the story about bamboo plants? Bamboo can go years without growing tall, with only its roots working quietly beneath the surface. But when the time comes, it can grow meter by meter in just a few weeks. Just like you, maybe at school or work, you feel like you’re not making an impact. But God is building the “roots” of your calling, quietly, deeply.

The service you do today might not go viral. Helping a friend, working honestly, joining a small group—all of that is the invisible roots of bamboo. But it’s not in vain. Galatians 6:9 says, “Do not grow weary,” because service is a process. God doesn’t judge you by how quickly you “grow,” but by your faithfulness when the results aren’t yet visible.

At the office or campus, you are being trained. Every presentation you do with integrity, every chat you send to encourage a friend—that’s ministry. When you endure in an unspiritual environment but still bring God’s love, you are growing roots. And when the time comes, you will “breakthrough,” becoming an extraordinary channel of blessing.

What to Do:
1. Write down one “root” that you are building today: for example, consistency, empathy, or honesty. Then pray that God will continue to strengthen you.
2. Do one good deed that doesn’t need to be seen by others, help selflessly, pray silently, or maintain integrity even if you’re not praised.
