Prayer: Make me a tree, Lord

They are like trees planted by streams of water,
which yield their fruit in its seasons….  Psalm 1:3

Make me a tree, Lord
Sturdy
Deep rooted
Useful.
Support
To those in need,
Shelter
To those who are weary,
Fruit
For those who hunger.
Make me a tree, Lord
Sturdy
Deep rooted
Useful
