However short, always too long in the moments forgetting that it is ALL and ALWAYS about bearing fruits that associate me with Him. I am not everlasting, I am not the Father, Son or Ghost, I am the man who follows and waits to look and shine His Light. For my penultimate successes are when people see His Fruits in my life, heart and smile. For there is no failure of man held tightly in God’s Embrace of Faith. As the Fruits of the Spirit will begin to show themselves in the bounty of a life well lived for God.

I do not grow, I plant and wait for God to bring the increases. Therefore I have glorious stories to regale the onlookers, but rather the testimonies of how God has used me each day to do the miracles that only He may do. I am a vine sent forth to bear the fruits endemic to my rebirth in Spirit. To show this world that which has always been available, possible and treasured for everlasting. What you see you see and what you do not is not there.

I appreciate my inability to convince anyone of my righteousness, for that was never within my power to deliver. If you see Christ within me His fruit will be measurable, palpable and undeniable. The sweetness, kindness and value of that bounty will be self evident, no need for discussion or apology. It will have grown, rich and true through everything that I do, say and tend. The flock I shepherd will see the Power of God’s Spirit in the care given. No need to write a book, sing a song or paint myself among the beloved of God for they shall know.

There is no painting to render, no works to impress or bounty to grow of my own hand in sweat and braggadocio. I abhor my boasts. I do not care what achievements you would have me produce to qualify as leader. For I am the simple thing that God uses to confound those who know I never could do what they’ve seen in the blessings God has rendered. I am what He makes me and do what He does through me, I repent of the brief musings where I told you any different. I was that man now I am this member of the Body of Christ.
