Just a short pace form where we live is a river, the 'Mehi' is it's name. Its not a very grand body of water but its important to us a many others. My children and I take our dog for walks along its backs and we jump in it to cool off. As we travel the dirt path upstream we often stop at the mulberry tree, Which grows down on the lower bank which some times is flooded.
We are loving the fruit at this time of year. There is something special about eating straight from a tree that just seems right. Also nobody has cultivated this tree it has been planted there by the providence of God. He has provided everything to make this fruit grow the seed, the water and the sunshine and he made a place for it and planted it there. We stroll up to it and wonder that a wild tree like this has any fruit on it? Does anyone else know of it's existence and value its bounty? It would appear not, because we are often blessed with hand-fulls of fruit. Isn't God good to put a tree there that only we know enough about to enjoy. His goodness is displayed to me by this and a thousand other ways. How great is our God?
