River Trees

The Buffalo National River area is one of my favorite places.  I am so fortunate to live close enough to visit it often.  My husband and I both grew up close to this river; we learned to swim in it before it became a national treasure, and have capsized canoes in it more than once!

As much as I delight in the beauty of this river,

it can never satisfy me like a trip into the Word of God!

Speaking of those who delight in the Word of God, the Psalmist said,
"They are like trees planted along the riverbank,  bearing fruit each season.
Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do." 
 Psalm 1:3 

And similarly Jeremiah wrote,
"They are like trees planted along a riverbank,
with roots that reach deep into the water.
Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought.
Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit.
Jeremiah 17:8
