The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree

Have you ever noticed the fruit produced tends to depend on the health of the tree? Trees that are given ample water and live-in well-maintained soil produce the best fruit. Trees that get little water and are in not so fertile soil don’t produce much fruit and the fruit that is produced usually does not compare in quality to a healthier tree. 

If you think about it, our lives are the same way. When we are connected to a healthy, positive, and nurturing spiritual, emotional, and physical environment, we tend to be healthy for ourselves and others. 

When our surroundings are full of negativity and all kinds of chaos, we struggle to receive the spiritual food needed to be healthy… 

The apple does not fall far from the tree! How fertile is your environment?.. Check your experience… 

“His roots grasped a new soil.” Big Book pg 12 

Lord, let us surround ourselves with a fertile environment filled with love, grace, and growth, AMEN. 

“I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit.” John 15:5 

 Furniture Bank Continues to help those in need! 

 Until we are clear from the world heath challenges, Furniture Bank is neither accepting nor scheduling pick-ups of donated items. 

We are using our cash reserves to order new items that can be drop shipped and delivered to our clients. 

Furniture Bank is a 501c3 public charity and every penny donated goes toward helping our families, veterans, and individuals in need. 

Please help us continue to help others! 


Have a blessed Day y’all!
