We are challenged as Christians to remain in Christ so that we can bear good fruit. When we are rooted in Christ, we are the same inside as outside – we are a person of integrity who is believable and will bear much fruit that can be harvested. As a disciple of the Lord, I have often felt that the fruit of our life should result from attaining the perfection of love we are called to live out. I feel very blessed to catch what I think is a “glimpse” of this perfection when I watch my new granddaughter as she becomes absolutely at peace in her mother’s arms. At this point in her life, no place in the world brings her this kind of security, peace, and love. This is the perfection of love God desires and provides us when we humble ourselves like a little child. This is the most amazing teaching to take into each day as an example of how the perfection of love, this path of holiness we are called to, is within reach of anyone willing to do God’s will in love at each successive moment as life unfolds, surrendering themselves into God’s providence. The closer we get to living out life in this manner, the more our life’s tree will bear its intended fruit of love. This lived praxis is the greatest testament to others of the truth, happiness, and joy obtained in living a life centered on being the light and love of God.
