Tree or Driftwood?

ever thought of it?
are we trees or driftwood?

I reckon, we all want to be trees...to be rooted at somewhere, and flourish and grow.
I know I wanna be a tree, taking in all the nourishment and water, the living water...
taking in all of God's words and instructions, putting them into action, growing in His love...and I want my life to grow and glow with Christ's love.

Reflecting, I am reminded of a song...

Be Like a Tree

I'm gonna be like a tree
Planted by the water
Trusting in the Father to keep me strong

I'm gonna be like a tree
Planted by the water
Trusting in the name of the Lord

The deeper the roots go
The better the fruits grow
The blessings bloom out for all to see

The deeper the roots go
The more my life shows
That Jesus is the Lord of me
Lord of me!

I'm gonna be like a tree
Planted by the water
Trusting in the Father to make me grow

I'm gonna be like a tree
Planted by the water
Trusting in the name of the Lord
