Good Morning!

You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed and placed and purposefully planted you, so that you would go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit will remain and be lasting, so that whatever you ask of the Father in My name [as My representative] He may give to you.  -John 15:16

God has chosen you, appointed you, and purposefully planted you to go and bear fruit. An apple tree, if never trimmed, does not produce good fruit but produces small almost no good apples, but if you trim it down it will produce much better fruit. Sometimes we need to take ourselves out of the equation and give it to God and allow ourselves to be trimmed to therefore go and produce better fruit.

“By the fruits which it bears is the tree known.”  -Jan Hus

“The day you plant the seed is not the day you eat the fruit. Be patient and stay the course.”  -Fabienne Fredrickson
