TWO OF MY FAVORITE SCRIPTURE PASSAGES
Cursed is the man who trusts in human beings,
who makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord.
He is like a barren bush in the wasteland that enjoys no change of season,
but stands in lava beds in the wilderness, a land, salty and uninhabited.
Blessed are those who trust in the Lord; the Lord will be their trust.
They are like a tree planted beside the water that stretches out its roots to the stream:
It does not fear heat when it comes, its leaves stay green;
in the year of drought it shows no distress, but still produces fruit.
Jeremiah 17:5-8
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in company with scoffers.
Rather, the law of the Lord is his joy; and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted near streams of water, that yields its fruit in season;
Its leaves never wither; whatever he does prospers.
Psalm 1:1-3
