Fruits and Hamburgers


So last night we looked at the example Paul set for other Christians. Paul said, hey if you want to know what a life looks like of someone who follows Christ, then look at my life. A very bold statment. We need to be able to make statements like that, "look at my life as an example. " Paul also told us that God works first within us, then through us. We looked at the example of a tree, that first you have to take care of that tree, water it, give it soil, air and sun and then it will produce fruit. So we as Christians should be working on growing ourselves, by reading the Word, spending time in prayer and devotion, as well as spending time in fellowship with other Christians. We also learned another wonderful little fact. Hamburgers are not a fruit. I know that is difficult to understand, but although a Hamburger may contain fruits in it, and yes some hamburgers have seeds (Seasme Seeds) this does not make them a fruit. Other notable things that are not fruits: Bacon, cell phones, AmpedOC.com, Apples*, and the moon.


*Note: Apples Computers, not to be confused withe the actual Apple fruit
