Blessed with Deep Roots

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.
