Like a tree

7“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
8They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.” (Jeremiah 17:7,8)

Thoughts: The next generation is like a tree planted.  Our hopes are that this tree would find its nourishment and provision in God- trusting in Him.  We should pray that our young people would know where their nourishment is and also know where their poison is.  Too many are seeking their own death and soul detriment by pursuing drugs and abusing alcohol or sexual immorality.  Life is found in trust in God and following in His ways. 

Prayer: Lord, may our young know how to trust in you.  Give us grace to teach them you are trustworthy.
