It was definitely a survivor, huh?<br /><br />I like your analogy about the "fruit". I think it's so great that God gives us everyday things in our lives to help us understand the scriptures. Even a little child can understand these concepts. <br /><br />Kathy, I hope you have a wonderful fruitfilled week!

Sometimes it might take longer than it should for us to see the fruit though and this often causes me to by-pass the good tree or vine that is slow and steady and true for the flashy one ..only to realize too late some fruit trees take up too much space, time, and easily get every virus or disease blowing in the wind , thus producing bad, or no fruit and passing them onto the surrounding trees.<br /><br />kenleighacres, thank-you .<br /><br />Star,my thoughts exactly, a Pair of pears!
