“That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither—whatever they do prospers.” (Psalm 1:3, NIV)
“Those whose lives are deeply rooted in truth and in the love of God are like trees planted by streams of water—steady and abundant, continually drawing strength and nourishment from Him. Such a life is unshaken by the changing of seasons and does not wither in the face of shifting circumstances.How, then, can we keep our hearts close to the source of living water in daily life? How can we remain inwardly abundant and steadfast amid pressure, uncertainty, and challenges? When we root our lives in God’s eternal and unchanging love, we will bear sweet fruit in due season and stay fresh and green even in times of drought.”
