Gordon Mcconnell Poet Rhyme

The Fruit Bearing Tree - Matthew 12: 33

Every tree is known by its product
whether that brings either bad or good
God shows here what He's looking for
explaining clearly so as to be understood

For each tree shows what's within
the fruit that's rotten shows that
as it's not followed God's instruction
rejecting His gospel makes its wheel flat

Now the tree that listens well
to God's word so brings rich fruit
staying close to Jesus all the way
brings real juicy flavour at its root

So the lesson is clear without doubt
God's seed brings out such flavour
when you're feeding on God's word
knowing personally Jesus your saviour

Don't be like that rotten fruit
denying Jesus and being so dry
be sure to trust Him for everything
His promises bear fruit to always bring

(Matthew 12:33
"Either make the tree good and its fruit good; or make the tree bad and its fruit bad, for the tree is known by its fruit.")
