The Olive Tree
A confused sub came before a wise Master who adored her.
She felt that to submit to Him would mean she would open her heart to unbearable
pain should He ever leave her. She hungered for Him and needed Him, but was
ready to walk away in panic.
The gentle Master knelt her before Him and
started a tale of love and devotion. As she looked up at Him, His arms began
to widen and open like a large tree stretches it's branches to the sky. At
that moment the Master appeared rooted to the floor and His impressive size
towered above her like a giant tree. Then he began to speak.....
I'm here for you...now and always no matter how far time and space takes us...Whether
you walk away from Me today or you stay and serve Me, I will not turn from you.
I am as patient as time itself, I will take not from you unless you give freely
and completely of yourself, but I give onto you regardless..for My love is unconditional...
Like the olive tree that can both feed you and shade you, I am there seemingly
eternal to your short life on this earth. If you need My fruit to feed your
hunger, I will give you all the fruit you need. If your skin grows dry and
loses its luster, the oil from My fruit will restore it and make it glisten.
When you need comfort, My leaves will gently caress your face with the slightest
breeze. When you need discipline, My branches will correct you when the wind
blows strong. If you just need My shade to protect you from the sun, My branches
will shade and protect you. If you need warmth at the night My fallen branches
will fuel the fire to keep you warm and safe.. If you need a refreshing breeze,
My leaves will fan you and cool you down. You are my gardener.
When you submit to Me, you tend that which keeps Me vibrant and full of life.
When you kneel under Me and till the soil, you give breath to My roots. When
you water Me, My sap flows strong through Me raising my limping Branches. When
you soil yourself collecting fertilizer with your bare hands, you strengthen
and humble Me with your devotion.
Although My life will go on, life would not be the same without you.
Your dedication and unconditional care for Me keeps Me vibrant and nurtures
My very core. The sustenance and protection I give you seems little reward
for your servitude. Still the gardener serves the tree from her heart and the
tree gives to her heart all the He can!
I am planted firmly on the ground and cannot follow you if you walk away from
Me...But be assured I will survive. One hundered years later and two of your
lifetimes; I will still be there, waiting for you in the same spot to offer
you all that I do now.
Stay with me and be my gardener. You cannot get lost in Me for we are complementary
to each other. I am your devotion, and you give meaning to my existence. Apart
we live life and survive; together we bloom eternally!
....As the Master finished His last words, the sub cried herself to sleep at
His feet. That night, He stood planted there like the Olive Tree offering her
His unconditional love and protection as she slept. As she would tend to Him
with her devotion the next day...and everyday thereafter!
