Spring time is in the air, and around this time the flowers
are blooming and everything is beautiful outside. Some of us have a green
thumb, and some just don’t. But there is
one who is the best gardener of all and that is God. John 15:1 says, “I am the true
vine, and my father is the gardener.” Jesus is talking about how when we
believe in him, we are connected to him, the vine, and his Father, the
Gardener, is the one who shapes us and turns us into something beautiful. He
shapes us, and molds us through trials and tribulations, to get us to bear much
fruit. As the gardener, he also cuts the dead branches of the vine, to allow
for the good ones can grow. If you don’t believe in Jesus, then you will be cut
off from the vine, because you would bear the fruit that God wants. For the
next two weeks, I’m having a mini-series about the vine, Jesus, and the
gardener, the Father, and the branches, us, and how we can bear good fruit for God’s kingdom.
