Pears
I was just reading this in a magazine. " The pear is one of the few fruits that does not ripen on the tree, but rather ripens after it is harvested." It makes me think about all of the references to fruit in the Bible. Jesus talks about us being fruit numerous times . But, it normally refers to us bearing or producing fruit and then being harvested. It is interesting that pears ripen after harvested. Many of us form our character with the goal of heaven in mind. But, how many of us acclimate ourselves to the circumstances around us, and still choose to ripen?
