meditation on tree

Greg- thanks for the leadership and vision.

From Isaiah 61:3


Oak.

Roots strong
Trunk wide
Bark thick
Leaves a plenty
Shade abounding
Greens, browns
Pure, simple

People weak
Hunger deep
Heart hard
Shade welcomed
Blacks, blues
Stone, flesh

Very nice, hen. never occured to me to contrast oaks with people. this makes the "renaming" that is announced in 61:3 all the more remarkable - that He will give people those characteristics of trees as their new identity - for the display of His splendor.
