O GOD THE FATHER OF FRUITFUL LIVING,
Our best image of you in Christ Jesus, Our Lord, reminds us that we are to "bear much fruit" and thus be His disciples. We do not like barren land. Neither do we like barren workers - barren animals - barren plants. Yet, we seem content with barren lives and barren souls. Our goal is fruit-bearing, and some of us are missing our goal. We are not passing the fruit test. The depth of our lives cry out for meaning and usefulness. If we are barren, help us on this day to begin anew to do your work your way and then miracles will happen in our lives and in our world. Help us to worship you and be fruitful for Jesus' sake.
Amen.
