Millpond Ink Musing, 2015 – Fertile Soil

A tender and contrite heart given unto God is a fertile soil; especially when it is watered by our tears of joy and supplication. It is where the fruit of the Holy Spirit can vigorously grow and blossom: gentleness, kindness, long-suffering, patience and most of all, charity. It is a peaceful place and vineyard. Why? Because the Prince of Peace, Master, tills, sows, prunes, and harvests, while sharing with us the first fruits.
