My Father Is the Gardener

“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit, he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. ”  — John 15: 1-3

Jesus is the true vine.

Our Father God is the gardener.

He prunes me to make me more fruitful.

Even though it's painful, He's molding me into the person He wants me to be.

God has a marvelous plan for my life, but He needs to prune away the chaff in me.

So I can be fruitful.

He needs to cut away every branch in my life that isn't bearing fruit.

He has cleansed me of my sins and I am grateful

Love Rejoices in the Truth

Love . . . rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. — I Corinthians 13:6-7

Yesterday was Kirk's birthday!

Abby and I rejoice in his love for our family.

We are blessed to have a wonderful Christian man for my husband and her dad.

Our love has endured many things.

Through it all, Kirk has rejoiced in the truth and has believed completely in God through His Son, Jesus.

This sensitive and caring guy has been an awesome and humbling example of God's love.

Abby and I have been able to lean on him for guidance and direction.

We surround him with our love and appreciation.

We are thankful to God.
