The Ford of the Yew TreeTuesday 23rd February 2021

Ahoghill is known as the Ford of the Yew Tree, and today Andrew uses that imagery to remind us that Christ is the only way to overcome God's judgement and enjoy His blessing.

Isaiah 43:1–2

Israel’s Only Savior

43:1   But now thus says the LORD,
  he who created you, O Jacob,
    he who formed you, O Israel:
  “Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
    I have called you by name, you are mine.
  When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
    and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you;
  when you walk through fire you shall not be burned,
    and the flame shall not consume you.

(ESV)

Jeremiah 17:7–8

  “Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD,
    whose trust is the LORD.
  He is like a tree planted by water,
    that sends out its roots by the stream,
  and does not fear when heat comes,
    for its leaves remain green,
  and is not anxious in the year of drought,
    for it does not cease to bear fruit.”

(ESV)
