Psalm 1 says the righteous person is 'like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither.'
Notice the image. Not a soldier, not a king. A tree.
Trees don't have flashy weeks. They have decades of unseen root growth. The secret of a fruitful life isn't intensity. It's what your roots are drinking from.
Plant yourself by the right stream, and the fruit comes — in season, on time, without forcing.
