Be the Master of Money, Not Its Slave

You should be the master of money, not its slave.

Do People Eat Your Fruit

People are known by their "fruit" (actions and character) in the Bible, as seen in Matthew 7:16-20 and Galatians 5:22-23.

In this illustration, if it is an apple tree, then there would be all kinds of apples growing, not just the one. Some will be sweeter or bitter depending on the life cycle and season the apple is in. God is the tree and Jesus is like the branches that stem of where we now produce fruit. What Is My Fruit Your fruit is a special gift you have, and everyone has one. Some people have the ability to calm and...
