Strength Beneath the Surface

Scripture  Jeremiah 17:7–8 (NRSVUE)  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.  It shall not fear when heat comes,  and its leaves shall stay green;  in the year of drought it is not anxious,  and it does not cease to bear fruit.Refrain  God strengthens me where no one sees.Quote / Poem  Christian Wiman  “Faith is not a fortress  but a seed in the soil—  small, hidden,  slow to rise.  Yet beneath the surface  the roots thicken,  the dark earth warms,  and strength is formed  long before it blooms.”   Hosted on Acast.
