My fig tree

Luke 13:1-9

This is my fig tree. I bought it about  eighteen months ago. This spring I repotted it. I thought if I give it a bigger pot perhaps it will grow. During the summer, maybe it had two leaves. Next spring I might try planting it in the ground. I know that Belgium does not have the best climate for figs but I bought the tree from our local vegetable grower so I am sure he has nurtured the tree from birth.
There are indeed two figs, they have been there and this size for most of the summer. Throw the tree on the compost heap? Never, unless it is well and truly dead, it is my baby. I will continue to nurture it.

I pray that God will do the same with me. I am his child after all.
