It's much easier to trust and lean on a tree or a rock because you have the assurance that there's little chance of it moving from where it is stationed. However in case of water or the wind, there's a bit of mistrust with these elements because of their unstable nature. They are malleable. They can easily conform to other factors that contort them.
In life you get people from both worlds:
1. stable and trustworthy
2. Unstable and Untrustworthy
Wisdom calls for one to seriously consider their options. To put them on a scale and weigh one's thoughts carefully. Consider sound advice and discard the junk.
Proverbs 18:24 (NIV)
One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin,
but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
Psalm 61:2 (NIV)
From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
I rely, trust and lean on Jesus Christ daily as He's been a friend who's stuck closer than a brother. He is the Rock. I have learned to depend upon his Word (BIBLE).
