John 15

We are not pruned because we are unclean

We do not suffer because we are worthless

Instead 

We are pruned because he loves the fruit

That we bear

And desires that we bear more fruit

Next time you or I are tried

Tested

Pursue fruit

and do not question your worth

As if pruning happens to a bad tree

You are bearing fruit

And God likes that

Smile, clean tree

Let him prune you

He likes you

And he loves your fruit

Be happy

You're loved

not hated

by the Vinedresser

Enjoy being known

Pursued

and loved - forever
