The Mighty Kauri Trees

Ok Guys & Girls here i am in Waipoua forest standing in awe next to a tree!, (pic 1 & 2) now this tree is called Te Matua Ngahere (Father of the Forest) The forest once covered most of the northern part of New Zealand, The Father of the Forest has been growing for more than 2000 years!! and it has stood the test of time, its been here even before the birth of Jesus Christ.....now this got me thinking suppose Jesus is like this tree who has also stood the test of time for more than 2000 years and who is just as big and strong as this mighty tree, if we follow in his footsteps would we not be as big and strong as this tree and therefore also stand the test of time as well?, there's one for you believers and non believers to think about this parable! i must of had a spiritual moment when i was there methinks, awesome power of nature though (to stand in awe is to admire the awesome power of nature) to think this tree has come from a small seed!, you would need more than a chainsaw to bring this tree down eh! Almighty folks.
