A Heart That Follows God

When we plant apple seeds, we expect an apple tree to grow. It's the seed and the roots that decide what kind of tree grows in the soil.

Similarly, when we belong to God we expect goodness and righteousness to grow in our lives. It is the fruit of our actions that tells us what kind of seeds we have planted.

John cautions us to be mindful of what type of fruit our lives produce. When we truly belong to God, and we spend time with Him, our lives will naturally produce goodness and right living.

 Pray:

Heavenly Father, we truly desire to imitate and know You! Guide us as we seek to follow You with our whole heart. In Jesus' name, Amen.
