Trust Yields Fruit
Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord
And whose trust is the Lord.
For he will be like a tree planted by the water,
That extends its roots by a stream
And will not fear when the heat comes;
But its leaves will be green,
And it will not be anxious in a year of drought
Nor cease to yield fruit.
Jeremiah 17:8
This is a parallel verse to Psalm 1. Success in life is measured by our trust in God. He will bring the results – the fruit (Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control). Or trust in Him will carry us through the tough times and we will not be anxious, but be able to rest in our deep soul. He is our God; He is a good God. God has an eternal perspective and is more concerned about our character than our circumstances. But He will walk through any situation with us and bring us peace in the midst.
May you walk in a deeper trust with God today. He is able!
