Description-This is a man of faith, a man who trusts the Lord with his whole being.....

"Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord , whose trust is the Lord . "He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit." Jer 17:7-8 (the proof of faith)

This is done through abiding in the vine-"Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.

Abiding is done through faith alone by grace alone!

Thank God for the gift of Faith!

Jesus

L@@K CLOSE-----Notice the dove (Holy Spirit) living inside the tree (you and me) There is a cross carved in the center of the tree because His gospel is the center and most important part of our lives (1 Cor 15)
