GOOD FRUIT

Hear me now, I speak the truth:

You shall know them by their fruit.

To sow, then reap, is absolute —

A law that no one can refute.

A briar-bush cannot bear figs;

Good fruit comes only from good trees.

Fruit of the Spirit, such as these:

Love and joy, patience, and peace,

Kindness, meekness, faithfulness,

Self-control, benevolence.

Righteous trees yield righteous fruit,

And increased harvests are produced.

So, grow in Spirit and in Truth —

I am the Vine, GOD is the Root.

If they are Mine, you will see proof:

And you will know them by their fruit.

(by Jim Sharp)
