Never have I ever seen an apple tree snacking on itself.
But I’ve seen plenty of us do it. Hoard the wisdom. Sit on the gift. Wait until we feel qualified, healed, or finally ready to be seen.
Fruit was never meant to stay on a branch. In fact, if you leave it there long enough it doesn’t become more valuable. It just rots.
That hard season you made it through? Somebody needs to know it can be survived.
That gift you keep downplaying? Somebody’s breakthrough might be hanging on it.
That word you’ve been too scared to say? Somebody has been starving for it.
The content you’re to scared to post because of the fear of judgment? Somebody is waiting for that unique message to finally feel like someone else gets them.
The tree takes the storms. It takes the pruning. Then it hands everything it grew to somebody else and never asks for a thank you. Not once.
You didn’t end up where you are by accident. God doesn’t plant anything without a purpose, and that includes you. He didn’t grow all that in you just so you could keep it.
So who were you planted here for?
Go feed them.
The cold truth is, not everyone likes apples. That’s ok! Your fruit isn’t for them. But some people….some people LOVE apples.
Much love,
