☮️Understand or find peace in the flood.✌🏼Meet Fruit Pot, Maureen🪴


Happy Fruitful Friday Reader!

A Need to Understand

I have spent a considerable amount of time this past week watching videos and news about the flooding in Texas. I want to understand what happened because my heart is breaking for the families who lost loved ones. I cannot imagine the immense pain a parent goes through when they lose a child. But, even if we cannot understand the circumstances, the Potter can give us peace.

This summer, Little Pot has asked our readers to share their testimonies about how the Potter has grown the fruit of the Spirit in them.

Ironically, our fruit pot guest this week tells the story of how the Potter filled her with peace when she temporarily lost her newborn adopted son.

PEACE that Surpasses Understanding

Reader, I cannot wait for you to meet Fruit Pot, Maureen Miller.

Maureen is an author who is also a fruit pot, just like you. She is a vessel in which the Potter grew peace at a time when she could not make sense of her circumstances. Click on the link to meet her and read her example of peace as a fruit of the Spirit.

When have you seen fruit in your life?

Reader, I'm anxious to hear your story, too. I am still looking for examples of Joy, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, and Gentleness!

I've included an easy-to-fill-in form below. Just click the button and share a time when it would have been impossible to be joyful, patient, kind, good, or gentle without the power of the Holy Spirit in you. A time when your fruitfulness surprised you.

I will continue to select stories to share on my blog. I'll share them anonymously, or, if you wish, I'll include links to promote you, your website, products, and services.

Reader, if you haven't already, will you please encourage others and share your story?

Stay Fruitful!,

Dawn, Little Pot, Tea Pot, Oil Lamp, and The Small Jar!

Please send me a reply if you would like the Potter's Vessels at your next event.

Additionally, if 2025 is the year YOU want to publish your book, I'd love to support you through EABooks Publishing.

what a leap of faith feels like

Happy Fruitful Friday Reader! A leap of faith, jumping off a cliff, or just taking a small step Hey Reader, Have you ever been asked by God to take a leap of faith? I wonder what that felt like for you. I haven't written many emails recently because I feel like I've been standing on the edge of a cliff, wondering whether to jump. The edge of a dream. Reader, the cliff might be the edge of a great future, but it feels scary. What if I jump and God isn't there to catch me? I know, I know, -it's...
