I tell you, then, that the kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.
Mt.21:43
Jesus' warning to the Pharisees is also a warning to me. Do I want to inherit God's kingdom? Then produce its fruit.
Faith, hope and love. The imperishable fruit of God's kingdom. How can I produce such fruit? Jesus suggests that "good soil" people possess noble and generous hearts that listen to God's word and act on it (Lk.815).
Jesus, help my day be one of active faith, hope and love. May your kingdom come here on earth as it is in heaven in my little corner of the world.
