A Life devoted to things is a dead life, a stump; a God-shaped life is a flourishing tree.
Proverbs 11:28
Oh that I may be a flourishing tree! Jesus, take my life and shape it according to your will. Take my steps today. Take my words. Be my thoughts.
Let every branch grow fruitful, and hang on to the shape of it's nourishing provider.
Oh Jesus, keep me a tender shoot, looking up towards the heavens. Grow my roots deep beneath the dirt, solid in your foundation. Let me sway easily, but never compromise my shape, and always open to the warmth of more Son.
Keep my branches open to welcome many weary visitors. Water my roots, as I share with others the water you so lovingly have provided for me.
Jesus, it has been said: 'A life devoted to things is a dead life, a stump; a God-shaped life is a flourishing tree."
Say That Again!
