He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season. Stand straight for God. Lives that reveal Christlike character are lovely to behold, for they are not gnarled by sin or rotted by hypocrisy. Those who are well-rooted in God's Word will be unmovable in times of trial and temptation. Bring blessing to others.
Some trees provide food, others give shade, and others are made into lumber.
So too, Christians should provide spiritual food and comfort to their neighbors, as well as use their time and talents to build people up in the Lord. 5. Be ready to be transplanted when God so wills. Used by permission.
