English Standard Version
No church ever puts an advertisement out on the church sign that people should come check out the community and find out how God will prune them! Not exactly a winning slogan, but that's the teaching from Jesus Christ -- that God prunes those who are bearing fruit, in the hopes that there will be even more fruit.
So when we come across challenges in our walk with God, when we feel like we're running into a wall, may we have the openness to the Holy Spirit to wonder how God might be pruning us, that we may be drawn even closer into community with God and with one another.
