This oak tree must have established a tremendous root system to survive the years of drought. When God teaches… disciples… disciplines us, it’s because He wants us to stand strong for Him. Drink deeply of the promise that we are His heritage on earth. In the end, He will not abandon us but assures us of our place in His loving family that begins with eternal life through Christ Jesus. #foundahome- Teresa

Psalm 94:12-19 (ESV)12 Blessed is the man whom you discipline, O Lord,

    and whom you teach out of your law,

13 to give him rest from days of trouble,

    until a pit is dug for the wicked.

14 For the Lord will not forsake his people;

    he will not abandon his heritage;

15 for justice will return to the righteous,

    and all the upright in heart will follow it.

16 Who rises up for me against the wicked?

    Who stands up for me against evildoers?

17 If the Lord had not been my help,

    my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.

18 When I thought, “My foot slips,”

    your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up.

19 When the cares of my heart are many,

    your consolations cheer my soul.
