You Are a Branch of the Tree of Life

Are there times in your life that you feel alone and helpless and you don't know where to turn for answers?  Here's a simple analogy to help you get through those times.

Think of a tree, imagine the most magnificent tree you've ever seen.  The branches and leaves are a part of that tree, they are an expression of the tree's beauty.  The branches and the leaves are nourished by the tree and it would foolish of them to look outside of the tree for any need.

Likewise, you are a branch of the Divine Tree of Life.  Thus, the glory and beauty of the Divine is expressed through you.  You are an intimate part of the Divine Tree of Life so, in those difficult times, just turn within to the Tree for nourishment because looking anywhere else would be foolish.
