From Start to End

Christ's death is the undoing of God's Word as a seed in the soil of fallen humanity. His resurrection is the healing of the soil's barrenness. The sending of the Spirit is the watering of that soil, so that humanity can bear much fruit. The Father rejoices in the fruit of redeemed humanity, which is from start to end the work of the Triune God. YOU are God's fruit. The reflection of His image of true sacrificial and self-giving love. You are deeply loved and cherished.
