Beauty in nature reveals the artistry, creativity, and goodness of our Creator. Kiwi fruit is not just delicious to eat, but forms a beautiful starburst pattern when sliced in half. This is just one example of how we know and experience God’s goodness! Psalm 34:8 encourages us to “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” (NIV)
Just as God’s gift brings nourishment and delight to our senses, every set of Keywi™ cards made for this project is designed to be both beautiful and provide nourishment to the soul.
As with any fruit, a kiwi begins as a tiny black seed. Planted in good soil with proper watering and light, the kiwi can grow into a vine and bear fruit. Just as Jesus taught in the parable of the sower, my prayer is that the seeds of God’s word would fall on the good soil of your heart, producing in you a fruitful and abundantly fulfilling life.
Bearing fruit requires that we remain in Christ.
Jesus stated in John 15:4: “Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.” (NIV)
One way of remaining in Jesus is setting to memory and meditating on spiritual truth daily. As you become more familiar with God’s word, you will find your heart attitude softening towards Him and your mind sharpening to the truth.
I encourage you to use free moments throughout your day to feed on the words that come from God. May you experience a hunger for God that drives you to passionately pursue Him!
“…man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.” (Deuteronomy 8:3, NIV)
“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” (Matthew 5:6, NIV)
