Righteous or right-wise people are those who acknowledge and obey that which has been ordained by God. Eugene Harder a majestic oak of righteousness planted along the freeway of life solely for the display of my Saviour's splendor. My ministry is that of a foundation builder who is preparing the soil and nurturing the seedlings so that they become magnificient trees of righteousness for the display of our Saviours splendor.
Roots are the character traits of virtue, integrity, faith and obedience.
The trunk is endurance, responsibility, self-control and loyalty. The branches are courage, devotion and wisdom. Some trees look wonderfuil but along comes the storms of life. The winds of adversity and temptation tear at these trees. When morning dawns some trees lay uprooted, they lacked integrity.
