Meditation
We are the Vine Planted by the Lord
Israel is like a vine it is growing. It
is a vine that was shown by God and planted. It is bound to grow and spread and
give fruit. The vine grows wild and it needs pruning. So too the people of
Israel have grown wicked and they have gone away from their God. They are guilty
of their evil life and sinful life. The Lord did not abandon them in their
sinful life.
To experience the unfailing love of God one
has to be merciful to oneself. Love of the self and willingness to amend one’s wrongdoing
are the ways to help oneself. The Lord with his grace will break through the
impossible and make us holy and acceptable to the Lord. As a person to pleasing
God, one will be pleasing to others to live in peace.
Do we take a chance to set things right in
our life?
