Matthew 12:33-37

GOOD FRUIT

“To have good fruit you must have a healthy tree; if you have a poor tree, you will have bad fruit… I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every word they have spoken.”

 

The grandmother tree
Line of women nurturers
Are you the good fruit?

I have taken my rest under this tree in SC. I have dreamed of my children and grandchildren and I have longed to leave them with the intentions to be kind, be strong, be just.

As we wait for the coming of our infant savior, consider finding a sympathetic tree and meditating a bit. What are your longings for your life?

What words will you speak to help heal our world?

What words need forgiveness?
