You can't ask for pears from the elm

SUMMARY: Bearing fruit for the extension of God's Kingdom is a beautiful way to glorify Him. We don't need to be perfect or have specific talents to bear fruit, but rather dispose our hearts to do so. Glorifying God should be our lifestyle and the center of our vision in our walk with Christ. Acknowledging Jesus in everything we do is a great way to give Him the glory. Let's fight the race of faith and be ministers, disciples, preachers, and healers of souls for the glory of God. We must yearn to see His glory and glorify Him at the same time.
A beautiful way to glorify God is by "bearing fruit" for the extension of his Kingdom. He who does not bear fruit cannot bear fruit because he cannot give what he does not have. You can't ask for pears from the elm, says an old saying from popular wisdom. Bearing fruit is walking in the fullness of God. It is to walk trusting in the glory of God in your life and that, although you walk in the valley of the shadow of death, the King of the Shepherds will supply spiritual deficiencies, renew your barns and give you comfort in tribulation. We are not perfect, but we can still bear fruit and bear fruit to the Lord. What a beautiful glory when as we bear fruit with our witness and diligence we see people regenerated by the Holy Spirit, families and marriages restored who have been influenced by our humble and honorable status as redeemed Christians!
We are not perfect, but in Christ we must and can bear fruit and return it to the Lord in concrete actions for his glory. We do not need to be ministry leaders, or preach eloquently, or have a vast knowledge of the Word; we can even be shy, insecure, and to some extent inconsistent in our character. Even so, if we dispose our hearts to bear and bear fruit for the honor of God, if with our Christian character we influence others and are an impact to the lost sinner, then we will see the glory of God in a life anointed with abundant blessings and we glorify Him, who is the incomparable King of glory. Glorifying God has to be our lifestyle.
The glory of God must be the center of our vision in our walk with Christ. If you want to pray a prayer that pleases God, often say to him: Lord, let everything he does glorify you, exalt you as Lord and God of all created things. Glorifying God goes beyond our moments of praise and worship in the congregation, but rather should be the lifestyle of Christians. The Word of God speaks to us with much more frequency of moments, circumstances, and actions in which the glory of God was manifested to his people by their obedience, by their devotion in prayer, by doing what pleases them and establishes in their statutes. .
Beloved brothers and sisters, glory means loveliness, distinction, beauty. Jesus is our glory and acknowledging Him in everything we do is a great way to give Him the glory. Fight with all your might this race of faith so that God produces fruits in your heart that you can offer him on the altar of his glory and the unredeemed world can be reached with the gospel of salvation. If you live a life of devotion to God, do not dilute the hope that Christ has placed in you in the sad devotions of the man of this world who is seeking his own glory, his recognition, his depraved benefits. Beg the Lord to make you bear fruit and bear fruit. Be a minister, disciple, preacher and healer of souls for the glory of God. The apostle Peter clearly exhorts us: “If anyone speaks, speak according to the words of God; If anyone ministers, he should minister according to the power that God gives, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs glory and empire for ever and ever. "(1 Pet. 4.11)
We, his children, must yearn to see his glory and glorify him at the same time. As the psalmist exclaimed, so do we today: "I have seen you in the sanctuary and I have beheld your power and your glory." (Psalm 63: 2)
God bless you!
