Conclusion

Apples that are left on the tree longer are sweeter than those that are picked early. The apples picked early are tart. They make our sour glands run in our jaws, and it’s generally uncomfortable. The sweetness of apples is a lot like our spirituality. The longer we walk with God, the sweeter our hearts and personalities will be! Let’s pray that our walk with Jesus will be long and our lives will grow sweeter each year.
