Psalm 9:13-14
Those that be planted in the house of the LORD
shall flourish in the courts of our God.
They shall still bring forth fruit in old age;
they shall be fat and flourishing.
My sister-in-law stitched the first verse of this pair for our wedding. I read it again this week. The second verse jumped out. It has been a tough season with pregnancy announcements, births, and updates on growing families in Christmas cards and letters. God promises that if I dwell in Him, I will bring forth fruit in old age. While it may not be His plan to provide the physical fruit that my heart desires, it may be spiritual fruit for His kingdom which is far more valuable.
