Lent 2016 - Day 19 - 28th February

Lent 2016 - Day 19 - 28th February

Today's piece is based on Luke 13:6-9:

Then Jesus told a story. “A man had a fig tree,” he said. “It was growing in his vineyard. When he went to look for fruit on it, he didn’t find any. So he went to the man who took care of the vineyard. He said, ‘For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree. But I haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’

“‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone for one more year. I’ll dig around it and feed it. If it bears fruit next year, fine! If not, then cut it down.’”

This piece came out nothing at all like I had anticipated, with the bold strokes and tones! The light is overcoming the darkness; the people will bear fruit and God loves us enough to wait until we achieve our potential in Him.
TFL!
