The Word is a Tree of Life
Tuesday, January 1, 2013
Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he meditates day and night.He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.Psalms 1:1-3
As we begin the new year, let us remember to spend time reading and meditating on God's word, that it may bear good fruit in our lives, and that we may have plenty with which to strengthen and encourage others.
On the day of judgement we will not be asked what we have read, but what we have done.
— Thomas À Kempis
