Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked...that person is like a tree planted by streams of water. Psalm 1:1-3
Tumbleweeds are common in the desert. They're plants that don't get enough rain during the growing season, dry out, and break free of their roots. They roll across the open land, blown by the wind and scattering seeds as they go.
Those who trust God and delight in his law are like trees planted by streams that don't run dry. Their leaves stay green, and they bear fruits of righteousness.
They have deep roots that sustain them in times of drought, and they are not blown here and there, weakened by doubt when life gets tough.
Thank you God for Jesus, the living water, who quenches our deepest thirst and keeps us alive in the barren places where we sometimes live--like the desert! Amen.
