WHERE ARE YOU PLANTED?

Psalm 52:8 (NKJV) 8 But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever. 

     Planted in the proper place the olive tree produces rich green leaves and wonderfully full fruit that bless all who care to take of it. God has a place for all His trees to bear rich fruit so that others may be blessed, however we are consumed so often with our desires we produce very little fruit and sickly looking leaves.
     The key to bearing real fruit, is found in the second part of this statement, " I trust in the mercy of God," He is the source of all blessings. God's mercy is for everyone who will come to Him, His blessing touch every life, but His mercy is for the one's who trust completely in Him.
     Where is your allegiance today, is it your desires, what you want, have you planted yourself in the wrong place? God wants to make you a blessing, you must trust Him, He must have first place in your life, Jesus will not spend time with a barren tree. Matthew 21:19 Will you by faith ask Jesus the Son of God to forgive you of your sins and will you trust Him with all your life? He will come in and make you a blessing to others. Trust Him today!
    Heavenly Father thank you for the blessing You give to those who are Yours and to those who are not Yours. May the evidence of Your presence in our lives encourage others to seek You with all their hearts and really trust You to change them eternally. Amen
