The Deep Roots Blessing

I bless you to be
Like a tree
Planted by streams of water
That yields its fruit
In its season,
And its leaf does not wither.

In all you do
May you prosper. (Psalm 1:3)

May every adversity
Propel your roots deeper,
Making you bendable,
But unbreakable,
And unshakeable.

And, as the streams of God’s grace,
Flow, day by day,
May you discover that
You’ve grown not only
Deep roots,
But also,
Unwithering fruit.
