THE NURISHED
TREE FLOURISHES

Have you
ever taken the time to stare down a tree. You
notice that the tree just stands there.
You can learn alot from a tree. Just look
at the bark and notice the texture. The
Texture gives some indications of the trees health.
Also notice the height of the tree. You can
observe even if you've never seen the tree before of its
success in growing. Some trees show their
signs of struggling to grow while others are fat and
flourishing. Then a most indicative
indication of the health of the tree is its leaves.
From them you can see how green they are and how fully
developed they have become. These are all
small indicators of the health of the tree.
In the
passage of this chapter its given of a tree planted by the
rivers of water which indicate the location of the tree
enables its growth and ability to thrive.
As Christians if we are rightly located we too will grow
spiritually for God. We must be daily in
the scriptures. Daily in the Word of
God letting theWords of God dwell in us richlly.
Also we must be located amongst fellow believers which
meaning we should spend our days amidst good Godly
fellowship. Also, we must find ourselves
in the Church under the hearing ear of the Word of God.
Its sad to say many Christians have de-valuated the
importance of hearing the Word of God.
There is a dearth of hearing the Word of God.
Our society was so much more enriching in days past when
society did not as much pull the individual out of church as
it does now.
Many
believers are not grwoing like they should and its because
of the location for which they have planted themselves.
We must plant ourselves under the sounding voice of the
scriptures daily so that we can be "Always abounding,
unmovable in the work of the Lord.
