Don't Wait for the Harvest Time

“The axe is already laid at the root of the trees; therefore every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” (Matthew 3:10)

John the Baptist didn’t mince words.  Jesus was coming, and folks needed to be ready.  A tree that hasn’t been producing fruit doesn’t spontaneously begin to show a harvest.  It takes intentional effort to turn a sickly tree into a healthy one.  Fertilizer must be applied, watering must be done, and the roots must begin to grow down deep.

Don’t wait for the eleventh hour to become the person you ought to be.  Repentance is a choice, but it is also a journey.  It takes time to cultivate the life the Lord intends for you to live, and there are no quick fixes to the fruit problem.  You have to put in the work.  The time to begin is now… not when it’s harvest time.  Jesus is coming; folks need to be ready.
