There are two things that determine what sort of fruit a certain tree will bear, one of course is the seed, the other is the condition of the tree,
and is also effected by the condition of the soil, each heart that is yielded to our Savior is given all that is needed to bear abundant and fragerant fruit, and each heart that is not will become contaminated and the fruit that is born will be tainted... In our walk through this strange land we are given choices each day , the choices we make determine how well cultivated the soil of the heart remains, The father in His infinite wisdom provides oppritunities through these choice to cultivate and continually change the soil into a medium fit to bear the best fruit, it is when we choose according to our own understanding that the very circumstance designed to bring victory can bring death. (prov.12:14)
The fruit we bear is as a direct result of what we allow to be added to the soil, each comprimise, every dicision to chose our own course will serve to contaminate the soil, as with any plant the care given it determines its health, the seed is good, we each were given His seed planted in our hearts and the soil at the first was well watered and rich... (eze.17:8) over time and as we matured and were given greater understanding of how to care for that seed, we were given more and more responsibilty to care for it, we were taught well how to nurture the seed by cultivating the soil,providing water and nutriants, He is guiding and leading each of us in the cultivation of that seed, (matt. 13) all we need is abundantly provided, all we need do is apply it. (matt 7:18) the word is the water, the nutriants come form the soil, and the soil can only be cultivated to allow the nuteiants to reach the roots by the gentle truning of the soil, the harder the ground the more force is needed in the turning, each trial we face whether inward or out ward serves this perpose, if the soil is cultivated the watering will reach the roots , if not it will serve only to harden the ground, and make it nessecary for more force to cutlivate the soil.
Everyday we each are given the choice to seek Him first, this is the sunshine that is essential in the growth of the seedling, as well as the plant,
without this, the tree will never develope and the fruit wil never come, once established the tree must have the sunshine each day to thrive and nurish all its parts, prolonged darkness will begine to cause the tree to go into a dormant state and the sap will no longer flow as before. Each of us are well established in truth, our roots are deep and grip the soils strong, however if we remove even one of the vital ingrediants the tree will suffer damge and the fruit will be less then entended, and not only but if the treee begins to die the shade provided by that branch is gone, and the fruit also will be less and less, (luk. 3:9) and in time it must be cut down...
Our Father has choosen each of us to not only bear fruit but to do so abundantly, healthy fruit that will feed all who partake of it, and all who wish can take shelter for a seasoin under the branches for shade, if the tree suffers loss, all those who are near the tree suffer it as well, all of the goodness each of us give to each other and all we influence comes from our Father, this is how he has choosen to bless mankind, through mankind, our place is to yeild our memebers to Him and grow in the knowledge and grace he gives each of us, if we choose not to do so we begine to whither and our fruit becomes tainted... this leds only to the death of the tree and eventuall burning....
The scriptures are repleat with instructions that teach all of us how to yeild ourselves to Him and allow the trials to build strong roots that will hold fast through the many stroms that will surely come, and not only but to uphold and strengthen others as we share what he has given us, Each of us have a place in His plan and each of us can choose to be the tree he planted and bear His fruit, or to be the tree of our own making and bear tainted fruit, the salvation of souls is a serious and eternal matter, and each one who willingly serves Him each day will bring others to the source of life , and each who do not will serve only to drive away those seeking after life, the truth of the matter is this: the Father does not need us (He loves us yes) but if we choose to become an unfruitfull tree, he will not force us to yeild, (he will call to us and urge us to recieve the like giving sunshine we need) but he will choose another tree he has planted and watered to bear the fruit, he loved us before we loved him, so we too must love other first.... and part of that love is knowing and feeling our responsibility to the Kingdom of our Dear savior and king...
