I was reading my Bible and studying a few things for this week’s sermon and came across this scripture that I hadn’t read in awhile…

7 “But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord whose confidence is in him. 8 He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes. Its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit. 9 The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? 10 I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind to reward a man according to his conduct, according to what his deeds deserve.”  (Jeremiah 17: 7-10)
