Speaking of fruit…

MORNING THOUGHTS ☕️:

“All I want is good fruit.”

I said that out loud to myself yesterday as I ate a cantaloupe. (Yes, no one was in the room…just me:)

I’ve been craving fruit all summer.

As soon as I said it, I realized how true this statement is on every level.

Nothing else satisfies right now.

I want GOOD fruit.

Nothing processed. Nothing artificial. Nothing conjured up.

Real, raw, full of flavor fruit is all I crave.

Here’s some fruity goodness:

“I am the sprouting vine and you’re my branches. As you live in union with me (abide) as your source, fruitfulness will stream from within you…BUT…when you live separated from me you are powerless.” - John 15:5

Abide. Plug in. Fruit will stream from within.

Opposite: try to do it all on my own, look to self to make things happen. Fruit of the flesh comes forth which is completely powerless and will not last.

Anyway. Carry on. I’m off to get a bowl of fruit.
