Word-Filled Wednesday – Matthew 7:16

Ye shall know them by their fruits.
Do men gather grapes of thorns,
or figs of thistles?
Matthew 7:16

Jesus declared that one can know a person’s character by what he or she does. Our actions reveal what we truly are.

  2. AMEN! So true, so true! Especially when we go through trials...who we really are when we're pressed....really seeps out! May it always be the aroma of the Lord Jesus Christ! If not, then may we repent so that next time, it will be.

    Bless you!

  8. Refreshing presentation of a truth that should stop us all in our tracks...are we
    fruit bearing? Is the fruit clean and beautiful or do the thorns push us away.

  12. I have to stop and ask myself this question at times, "what fruit are you bearing?". It always puts everything into perspective!
