Men are like trees planted by the rivers of water. Green and fertile because of faith in Him, producing fresh and bountiful fruits in season. Gifts that are well preserved. Never dropping a leaf and always in blossom. Fat and full, chewing on Scripture day and night.
God leads them from place to place in victory parade. Through them, he brings knowledge of Christ. Everywhere they go, people breathe in the exquisite, sweet fragrance. Because of Christ, they give off a sweet scent rising to God, which is recognized by those on the way of salvation. Shining brighter in darkness, never hiding what they hear or how they live. Each lit like a Christmas tree on a window, planted by God to display His glory. Decorated with ornaments that are old. The memories of who they were and where they came from. Sharing their stories. The new ornaments embrace the new life they now live and speaking of hope for the future. The stars a the top of each tree point the way to those that are looking for the One True King, born inside of them. The angels join them in praise and worship all around. Joy being fulfilled!
Revelation 2:7 (The Message)
Are your ears awake? Listen. Listen to the Wind Words, the Spirit blowing through the Churches. I'm about to call each conqueror to dinner. I'm spreading a banquet of Tree-of-Life fruit, a supper plucked from God's orchard.
