Time To Prune
By John Ker
r
           

My apple tree in the back yard is slapping me in the face when I mow.  It gets worse and worse as the first day of summer (Friday, June 20) approaches.  I got my loppers out the other day and a friend warned me that cutting branches off my tree this time of year could kill it.

            I remembered that an “old guy” from years ago told me that the best time to prune an apple tree was “when you are walking past it and you have a good pocket knife with you”.  I did check and found out that pruning an apple tree any time of year will not kill it.  Some times are better than others, but this is not a fatality.
 
John 15:1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

            I remember as a young man hearing the term:  “You could use a good trimming”.  Some times it had to do with a haircut, but more often it was similar to trimming a plant to improve its growth.  Much like this metaphor in our text, it can be used in some aspect of life.  It would suggest a need to eliminate unnecessary activities or distractions to be more efficient or successful.  In simpler terms, stop focusing on what you want to do and focus on what I am telling you to do.  Listen and pay attention.

            I think, much like my apple tree, God may give us a trimming at any time.  It might hurt a little bit, but it won’t kill us.  If we listen and pay attention we will bear more fruit.

Flugelbinder - The hard end of a shoestring, usually plastic or metal. I once ate shoestring potatoes with flugelbinders. Talk about crunchy!
