Deeply Rooted

I had to miss church again today, but I came across this scripture in Jeremiah that really spoke to me this morning.

Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord

and whose trust is the Lord.

For he will be like a tree planted by the water,

that extends its roots by a stream

and will not fear when the heat comes;

but its leaves will be green,

and it will not be anxious in a year of drought

nor cease to yield fruit.

Jeremiah 17:7-8

This will no doubt be a year of drought (challenges), but I think - well, hope - I'm deeply rooted and will bear fruit even through this season.
