Be Like The Willow Tree!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! The willow Tree is a magnificently stable tree. The roots are remarkable for their toughness, size, and tenacity of life, and roots readily grow from aerial parts of the plant. Every part of this tree is used for something...environment, medicine, art, pollen for bees to make honey, Energy for bio fuels, Agriculture...and many more. This tree is also very flexible and can withstand very high winds. It's bark which is of high water content makes in flexible when need be. We can be the willow tree, unbendable when circumstances come. We may bend low but we pop right back up. We may weep, but our tears are used to make the flowers grow. We may shed our leaves sometimes but more will grow. We have a consistency in us that can help us withstand the pressures of life. We just have to have the tenacity of a willow tree, that no matter what comes our way... we will stand. We will continue to reach our branches out to others, help others heal, feed others when they are hungry, create energy with our prayers and be flexible in times of trouble. Be planted like a tree beside living waters! Jesus is our living water today. We are the tree that will bend but not fall. Be Blessed!
