Marketing the Produce (Fruit)

Our Heavenly Father is the Master Marketer. He "packages" Himself in a wrapper of fruit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control. Fruit Markets, in other words fruit sells God to a world hungry for truth, for hope, and for life. Fruit is something we know. We are familiar with these amazing words. God is so much bigger, but He meets us in the language, words, and qualities of our longing so that we might know Him.

Fruit is the external result of an internal relationship. Fruit is the dressing that beckons others to know the God we represent. As a result of our growing relationship with God, we can introduce others to Him.

Fruit looks good! When we get to know fruit-filled people, we discover that fruit tastes so good. Like bright oranges standing out against the green leaves of a tree, the fruit of the Spirit announces to a starving world, "Here is food, Here is Life". Come and find a way out of exhaustion and discouragement. Come and Meet God!
