\u201cHe is strong, like a tree planted by a river. It produces fruit in season. Its leaves don\u2019t die. Everything he does will succeed.\u201d<\/em> Psalm 1:3 ICB<\/p>\n

Wouldn\u2019t it be awesome to live to be 200 years old? People can\u2019t live that long, but an oak tree can! Many of them live much longer than that. Did you know an oak tree grows from a tiny acorn? It\u2019s hard to believe something so small can become so giant.<\/p>\n

While a young oak is busy growing, it can be damaged by strong storms and bad weather. Certain animals, like bugs and caterpillars, like to nibble on the oaks\u2019 leaves, which can also hurt the tree. But as the small tree overcomes these challenges, its leaves reach toward the sky, its roots grow deeper into the ground, and it becomes mighty and immovable\u2014which means it stays right where it is.<\/p>\n

Like a small oak tree, you will have challenges as you grow up. When you have a problem, you can learn how to get through it by trusting God and asking for help. As you lean on Him, He will make you strong. Then, you will become like a mighty and unmovable oak tree.<\/p>\n
