Bear fruit

Tonight I witnessed my teaching leader from BSF bear fruit.  Her lecture was on the 15th chapter of John.  “If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit: apart from me you can do nothing.”  John 15:5  Tonight I not only heard her preach on it, but saw it in action.  Her principles were every follower of Jesus will bear fruit and every follower must love sacrificially.  We end at 8:30pm I’m done with the day and I can image she is as well, too.  Because she is a follower of Jesus she show loved sacrificially to my children.   My kids walked right back into the sanctuary as she was cleaning up.  She stopped and sat on the steps with my kids and talked with them.  I didn’t get to hear all the details of what was said, but that is not the point.  She sat down with them, looked them in the eye, and took the time to hear their thoughts about what they learned tonight.  Her patience and love was just pouring out of her.  I praise God for this servant, fellow sister in Christ,  he has placed into our lives.  Jadon has known her from birth.  If I recall right, she served in the baby class when Jadon was an infant over 7 years ago.  He has been prayed over by this woman his whole life.  How amazing to see God working through his servants, so that his children will know Him.  I don’t know if my kids will remember this moment.   But I do pray they will look back at their lives and realize all the people God has placed in their lives to help them bear fruit.

Bear fruit my children.

Chris
