The Wisdom of Trees
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)
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.—Hebrews 11:1 NIV
As we close 2021, reflect on the many times you had courageous and strong faith—believing in the unseen. You rose against adversity, and saw beyond distressing news. You envisioned the brightness of better days. As you stand on the edge of a new year, know that you have developed your vision to see possibilities rather than problems.
Lord, You bless me with great faith. You take away my doubts and nudge me to believe the best is yet to come.
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)
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.—Psalm 19:1 (NIV)
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.—Ephesians 6:16 (NIV)
