How To Stay Fresh & Flourish!
"Blessed is the man who trusts
in the Lord…. For he shall be
like a tree planted by the waters."
Jeremiah 17: 7-8
Most of us at some point stop growing taller.
A new study has found that trees never stop
growing and as they age growth accelerates.
It’s the older trees and their large size that
most helps the earth keep its air recycled
and clean.
Psalm 92:14 says,
“The righteous shall … still bear
fruit in old age; they shall be fresh
and flourishing.”
When we’re rooted and grounded in Christ,
we will keep growing in spiritual maturity,
and God will use us in exciting new ways.
Encapsulated in 2 Peter 1:5-7 is where the Lord
tells us we must keep
growing in our faith, virtue,
knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness,
brotherly kindness, and love. “For if these things
are yours and abound, you will be neither barren
nor unfruitful” (verse 8).
Whatever your age is,
keep growing and
moving forward!
"As a tree beside
the water,
has the Savior planted me;
all my fruit shall be in season,
I shall live eternally."
