bury the shit and bear fruit

Saturday March 13th, Luke 13:8 “‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone for one more year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize it. 9 If it bears fruit next year, fine! If not, then cut it down.’ “God’s response to all this chop ‘em down mentality, is to get some fertilizer, and not the artificial stuff either, real honest to goodness organic shit the way God intended. God’s response to our lack of fruitfulness is to offer nurture for our souls, often from the very crap we try to give others. Instead of throwing around a bunch of BS, perhaps we should put it to good use and bury it, let our own human made difficulties in life offer the substance needed to grow through God’s grace. Then maybe things could grow and bear fruit. When life hands you a bunch of shit, don’t hang onto it, bury it, use it, and let what God has given you bear fruit.
