Good Fruit

Breadcrumb Navigation

As I look up from working on the pumpkin beds, I realize that we have been moving without stopping for the last two months. Chickens raised and processed, Tomatoes planted and now ready for harvest, watermelons and cantaloupes growing toward delicious. This Saturday looks to be a new milestone for us.

Audra (Good Lord willing and the creeks don’t rise) will be in Farmville at the Farmville farmer’s market. The Farmville Community Marketplace is at 213 North Street and there is plenty of free parking. We are still putting peices together, so we will not look like a well polished farmers market booth. We will, however, have tomatoes, chicken, bread and maybe some squash and cucumbers. Its a start.

As we continue to build, weed, replant and chase bugs, we keep remembering these things ultimately produce results.

You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.

Lord, prepare in us good fruit. – Jamie 7/17/20
