VINE BRANCH THEOLOGY
by Robert Brow Kingston, Ontario, September 2006
my business is growing
the best grapes from this vine
you have sprouted and your duty
is to produce ten clusters
for my harvest
I did my best but couldn’t
even produce a vine leaf
then my master explained
just let the sap into your life
the fruit will come
the green leaves looked so nice
I said to him that’s enough
but he replied the fruit will come
the sap will do what you never
thought possible
when the clusters weighed me down
I said please leave me alone
but finally the harvesters came to cut them
it was painful
he said well done
NOTE : The Christian life is not a set of rules demanding the impossible.
When the Holy Spirit works the miracle in us, the Father is delighted.
