Growing Strong in the Lord Psalms 1:1-3
Psalm 1:1-3 tells us what happens when we love and obey God's Word, the Bible. In those verses we read, "Blessed is the man...[whose] delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he mediates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers."
When a tree is next to a stream, it can drink all the water it needs so that its leaves stay green and it can bear fruit. In the same way, when we feed ourselves from the Bible—which is the same as listening to it and obeying it—then we will grow into strong Christians. Can you find your way to the big, strong tree next to the stream? |
