Thoughts#2388

Barren or fruitful

Have you been to the desert?  One moment you can only see desolation, dry sand, and large rocks . The next moment when you come to civilization, you find lush, green grass, colourful flowers of all sorts  blooming profusely.

What a difference - the desolate and the vibrant growth were both in desert climate. The verdant growth was carefully tended, watered, pruned and fertilized. The desolate desert was not.

How do you keep our soul from becoming barren and lean ?

How do we make our lives fruitful and alive ?

Just mediate on the Bible all the time !!

Psalm 1 : 3

He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
