Intro: Detox Smoothies Inspired by the Tree of Life
Yeshua, our Tree of Life, has gifted us with a world rich in natural sustenance, and each plant, herb, and fruit reveals His care and provision. As Matthew 5:45 reminds us, “He makes His sun rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.” He has crafted a beautiful creation filled with life-giving foods that nourish, cleanse, and restore us. In gratitude, we honor Him by choosing to eat from the “trees of life” He has provided, rather than the poisons of the world. Even when we stray, He has provided ways for us to detoxify, rebuild, and return to health, reminding us of His ultimate plan for our prosperity.
