BOB

Good morning! This is Bob Peden of Central, A United Methodist Community. An unknown author penned the piece AAll I Need to Know about Life I Learned from Trees.@ Some of his ideas are: It's important to have roots. In today's complex world, it pays to branch out. If you really believe in something, don't be afraid to go out on a limb. Avoid people who would like to cut you down. Get all spruced up when you have a hot date. If the party gets boring, just leaf.

The author of the very first Psalm says that a godly person is like a tree in three very important ways. First, he is planted C he's got his roots put down deep, he's fortified, stable. Second, he bears fruit C he develops godlike qualities in his character and life. Third, he doesn't wither C he is able to survive under all circumstances, even days of difficulty.

May your spiritual life take on the qualities of a tree planted by the rivers of water.
