September 6th.
Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters. (Ezekiel 31:7 KJV)​
When the love of Jesus is abiding in the soul, many who are now but withered branches will become as the cedars of Lebanon, “whose root is by the great waters.” When the tempest grapples with its boughs, that firm-set tree cannot be uprooted. What a goodly cedar might not every follower of Christ become, if he were but rooted and grounded in the truth, firmly united to the Eternal Rock (Ellen G. White)​
