Trees:
I and many others have walked in the woods smelling the earth, pine needles and the moisture in the air. When you take the time and look around you will notice many varieties of trees. Some are very leafy, some very short and stubby and some mighty, majestic and tall. I can imagine what the garden of Eden must have looked like, sculpted by God's hands. Trees, flowers and fruits of all kinds to please the eyes, the nose and the mouth.
Sadly, man could not keep his thoughts on the maker.
With the disobedience to God's orders, sin and death entered the world. The fruit of a living tree was used to bring this death and sin.

Thousands of years later, a tree probably planted by man, became a tree of death. A tree was cut down and used to cause pain and suffering. The dead tree, formed in the shape of a cross, became the channel that gave life back to man. Jesus, the Christ, gave his life, his blood and his spirit to set mankind free on this tree of death. Jesus conquered death and sin, rose up and now seated on God's right hand. We just have to accept God's son as our savior, confess our sins, be baptized and continue to follow him. Eternal life and forgiveness are ours.

Every second of every day someone is suffering. Natural calamities, loss of loved ones, physical injuries and pain constantly threaten us. The sunshine and the rain fall equally on the good and the bad meaning no one is exempt.
Getting through difficult times is a test of anyone's character. The way you were raised, the things you learned on the streets, the instructions you received at your house of worship and the education given by your teachers all helped mold your character. Sadly not everyone receives these things equally and to their benefit.
Those people that have shown a loving spirit, blessed others even during their trials, gave of their time and effort while hurting inside have something others may be lacking in their lives.

A real dependency on a spiritual friend, guide and teacher.

This friend is available to all and has a shoulder broad enough for all to cry on. He loves equally and unconditionally for all his creation. He requests one thing tho, believe in him, repent of sin and talk about him.
He will help you go through difficult times in you life, help others you have asked him to care for and bring calmness and peace to all that ask.
His door is always open and the interior of his house is well lit and warm. Jesus, the Christ, is waiting to share eternity with you. Amen !!
