The Fruit Baring Tree

 Little tiny buds peeking out from a fruit baring tree. So small in the beginning and pale green. Invisible beauty all wrapped up in a tiny little package. You wouldn't think anything wonderful could come from a small insignificant little bud..........

And then a glimpse of whats to come. Blushing pink and vibrant green. A sign that the tree was planted in fertile soil. Well taken care of, groomed and nourished.

Blossoms so fragrant, so sweet. Like the taste of a peach, melt in your mouth sweet.

 The trees have yet to bare fruit. Growing and patience go together, hand and hand. They marry into one. With patience comes the growing. With growing comes the fruit. And there is wisdom in it all.

And this is how we raise our children with patience. So they will grow into wisdom and bare good fruit. For they will be known by their fruit. We will all be known by our fruit. In all my days gone before I know this now more than ever. I want this for them.......In all their ways may they grow in wisdom and in truth. May they follow His lead. Keep what is good and do away with what is evil. Oh that they will always remember to share in love no matter how old they grow...........May they always bare good fruit.

"Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit. Matthew 12:33
