Are you a “palm tree Christian”?

When contemplating the photographs of the strongest hurricanes in history, leaving so much destruction, it is surprising to see that there is always something that remains standing, and it is the palm tree.

Palm trees are thin and slender, that’s why many come to consider it a “fragile tree.” However, these trees with the appearance of weakness are able to remain standing after storms.

There are two essential things that can be learned from this wonderful tree.

“You have been designed to overcome storms”

One of the qualities of the palm tree is that they are very flexible.  Instead of offering resistance to hurricane-force winds, They allow themselves to be pushed and shaken, this is a mechanism that they have developed over time.

“All the situations that come into our life, good or bad, are intended to teach us a lesson. If things did not go well the first time, we will know how to act next time. Like the palm tree, it is necessary that we not withstand the storm, but rather learn to be flexible before it, knowing that even if it pushes us from one side to the other, it will never be able to knock us down, because God does not place burdens on us that are impossible to bear. (1 Corinthians 10:13)”

“Even if you fall you must stand up”

Another important quality of the palm tree is that it has learned to put down deep roots, this allows it to bend until its branches touch the ground, but after the storm, they stand up again.

“The storm may have bent you a bit, to the point of making you touch the ground, but don’t worry, the most important thing is to have the desire to get up and move on. It is necessary to know where you stand, to be very clear about who you are in Christ Jesus, because in this way you will have deep roots that will allow you to get up from the ground and move on. When you are going through a difficult time, always remember the palm tree.”

‘The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;Psalm 92:12.
