A strong tree

He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season And it's leaf does not wither; Andin whatever he does, he prospers (Ps. 1:3 NASB)

This verse talks about the person seeking God & following Him.  It says he will be like a tree firmly planted by the water.  We need to be firmly planted on Gods word. I believe the water is God & His Word.  Thats where I want to be planted!  His word hasn't changed.  We don't need to change it but it should change us!  The world needs people to stay firm in their commitment to Christ & not be wishy washy.  Also it says we will bear fruit.  If we live our witness according to Gods word we can't help but bear fruit.  If we're bearing fruit, we won't wither which tells me we will remain strong.  I think that means personally & as the church.  Plant yourself by the water (God & His Word).  Be a strong tree. It says if you will do these things, whatever you will do will prosper.  The reason for that is because you will be following Gods will because you are planted by the water.  You will be growing, strong, & fruitful.
