Trees Calm the Soul
They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green.
Jeremiah 17:8
Trees Sing with the Wind
Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them; let all the trees of the forest sing for joy.
Psalm 96:12
Strength in Roots
Have you ever considered a tree as a source of calm? Take a moment. Picture one in your mind.
What do you see?
Trees are majestic. Even young trees exhibit strength as they grow each year, getting taller and taller. They provide us with fruit, shade for protection and rest, and a place for birds to call home.
Much like the roots of trees, our faith can provide us with strength.
Trees Teach
Through storms and seasons, trees remain deeply rooted and unwavering. And in their quiet strength, they teach us many things.
To stand firm.
To bend and not break.
To reach for the light as we stay rooted.
And to drink deeply from the waters of life.
Trees protect us.
Like gentle guides, they lead us. If only we pause to listen to their sway, whispers, and song.
Next time, we’ll pick up from here and listen to the love song of a tree.
