do we need to be pruned


are we being productive
bearing fruit for the kingdom;
do we need to be pruned
to give more freely

are we being productive
are we staying connected
to Christ, to the vine
to God, to the Spirit

are we bearing fruit
of God’s love, of the kingdom;
do we need to be pruned
to be more fruitful
