The fruit that the tree produces is not for itself; it's for others to come and get nourishment.
In this episode of the Mess It Up Podcast, the Bow Tie Guy and Bev dive into the concept of 'bearing fruit' in recovery, inspired by Galatians 5. They chat about the 'fruit of the spirit'—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—and what it means to genuinely produce these qualities rather than just mimicking them. With their usual blend of humour and heartfelt discussion, they explore how these virtues manifest in everyday life and recovery journeys.
Bev shares a touching anecdote about getting her fingerprints done, tying it back to the idea that each of us is uniquely crafted by God. The hosts also discuss how true spiritual fruit benefits others, much like how trees provide nourishment through their fruit. This metaphor extends to recovery, where genuine growth can inspire and support those around us.
A highlight of the episode is a snippet from Dan Bremness's song 'The Fingerprints of God', which leads to a conversation about recognising God's influence in our lives. The hosts reflect on how even the smallest signs can be reminders of divine presence and guidance. The episode is filled with personal stories, light-hearted banter, and deep reflections on spirituality and recovery. If you're looking for an uplifting discussion that blends faith and practical advice, this episode is a must-listen.
So why not take a moment to explore what it means to bear fruit in your own life?
