Observation from my back yard at this moment...There is an apple tree growing in the back northwest corner (the picture is of M hanging from it two summers ago). My kids love to climb it. (But at the moment M and S are playing some strange game of knocking each other off the slide - and they are laughing and loving it. I'm wondering how much longer it will last before someone gets hurt, but I digress... back to the tree...)
I noticed this evening that the tree is producing more apples this summer, and larger ones at that, than in previous years. But as I sit here on the patio in my cracked plastic chair, I noticed how the fruit is strong and numerous on some branches, but very few apples are growing in other parts.
Man, my spiritual life is a lot like that apple tree...
