By My Fruits
by Deborah Ann Belka

By my fruits,
will I be known.
By all the seeds,
that I have sown.

The good ones,
and the bad.
The ones that take,
the ones that add.

Just what will it be,
that others see;
that will make them want,
what is inside me?

Will their eyes,
glimpse and know;
that God is with me,
wherever I go?

Am I strong,
or, Am I weak?
Is it my will,
or the Lord's I seek?

Did I plant,
the seeds in love?
Not of mine,
but, of God's above.

Were they watered,
from the start?
With Gods Word,
straight from my heart.

Can they see,
the peace within?
Or is peace missing,
because of hidden sin?

Will they see God's,
strength and power?
Or has my faith,
turned somewhat sour?

All these things,
I need to ask.
For, there is no hiding,
behind a mask.

God knows the true purpose,
and intent of my labor.
And I pray He grants,
all my seeds His favor.

James 3:17-18

"But the wisdom that is from above
is first pure, then peaceable, gentle,
willing to yield, full of mercy
and good fruits, without partiality
and without hypocrisy.

Now the fruit of righteousness
is sown in peace by those
who make peace."
