Drawing from Jeremiah 17:7-8, this message from New Castle Free Will Baptist Church examines what it means to place genuine trust in God rather than in oneself or others. The pastor uses the imagery of a tree planted by water to illustrate how believers with deep spiritual roots can endure both the heat of life's trials and the emptiness of spiritual drought without withering or losing productivity. The sermon calls listeners to examine where their trust truly rests and to anchor it in Christ before times of crisis arrive.
