Psalm 1 – You Are Planted

READ PSALM 1

His delight is in the Lord’s instruction, and he meditates on it day and night. He is like a tree planted beside flowing streams that bears its fruit in its season and its leaf does not wither. (Psalms 1:2-3)

In the next few weeks, as we really start to notice all the things we’re missing, life will feel dry and dull. All the more reason for us to sink deep roots into the refreshing water of God’s grace, like the tree planted by the stream. Other trees around us, planted out in the fields, will get rain here and there. Happiness will come in spurts for most people. But if we stay planted near the stream of God’s instruction (through his Word), God’s power (through prayer), and God’s people (through community in person or online), we’ll keep bearing fruit and leaves that don’t wither.
