Prune the Unnecessary…
An orchard can only remain productive if there is needed and careful pruning!
Pruning cleans away dead, dying, and diseased material.
Pruning removes unnecessary branches, reducing weight on heavy limbs.
I don’t know about you, but I can sure use some reduced weight on heavy limbs!
And Pruning reduces the size of the plant, to help maintain its structural integrity.
Humans have similar issues:
1. Over-extended schedules (little margin)
2. My own expectations
3. Other people’s expectations…
Pruning is done to maximize our fruit production. Branches produce fruit to nourish others, not to satisfy themselves. The more fruit we are able to produce, the more people we can bless.
Take a little time and review your personal and professional commitments. See if there are areas that could be pruned so that your life would be more enjoyable for yourself and others.
Have a nice day… take care of yourself and others!
