A tree planted by a riverbank has a steady source of nourishment, so it prospers. People who are grafted into God’s family tree find nourishment in His Word, the Bible. We know this, but it’s easy to get distracted or make excuses. Let’s encourage each other as we let our roots grow deep into biblical teaching.
KEY VERSES:
Psalm 1:1-3 (NLT) 1 Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. 2 But they delight in the law of the LORD, meditating on it day and night. 3 They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.
BIG IDEA: In the end, the pursuit of ultimate happiness merges with the pursuit of holiness.
