Ripening



I stayed with a friend this week who had this beautiful blackberry bush in her backyard.  One evening, we picked every ripe blackberry off of the bush.  And the next evening…all of these new berries were ripe to pick!

The Holy Spirit whispered to my heart.  “Becky, don’t be quick to judge people who aren’t following hard after Jesus.  Ask…and then trust that I’m pursuing them with the light of Christ.  Their time is coming; they will be fruitful!  Watch and appreciate the beautiful ripening process which happens at a different time for everyone.”
