I am a tree

Psalm 1:3-“And he will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of living water, which yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither…”

I am a tree

I am firmly planted by streams of living water

I stand tall

My roots are hidden, however they go deep

I am strong

I am supported

I am fed

I am able to withstand storms

I am a tree

I am firmly planted by streams of living water

I am refreshed after a drought

My leaves are supple, green.

Day after day, month after month, year after year I grow.

I am pruned, deadness falls

I am wise

I stand tall

I give gifts to the creatures of the earth

Fruit to those who are hungry

A home to birds and others who need shelter

Shade to the earth and to people who need peace and calm

I am a tree

I am firmly planted by streams of living water

I stand tall.
