From Jeremiah 17:7-8: “Blessed are those who trust in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. They shall be like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots by the stream.”
Coming to faith’s crossroads
Two unique trails offer choice
Trusting selves to wilderness
Or, following God’s voice
Like tree planted with grace
Waters nourish every root
Filling with life, staying green
Bearing always rich fruit
Sustained through steadfast trust
Even when darkness brings drought
Sustaining each righteous breath
Finding God’s faithful sprouts
Sunrise at Calvary
Resurrection’s risen hope
Witnessing His empty tomb
Grasping Christ’s promised rope
From 1 Corinthians 15:20-22: “But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have died. For since death came through a human, the resurrection of the dead has also come through a human, for as all die in Adam, so all will be made alive in Christ.”
