And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, He was hungry: And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, and when he came, if haply He might find anything thereon: and when He came to it, He found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet. (Mark 11:12-13 KJV biblestudytools.com) JESUS and His disciples were traveling. He approached a fig tree because He was hungry. The tree showed signs of life. There were leaves on it. Though it was the season for figs, no figs appeared on the tree. The tree was not doing as it was designed to do, produce figs. As people of GOD, we are to produce for the Kingdom of GOD. Let our lives be fruitful unto The Lord; that we may be used by GOD, as a source of nourishment to others. To GOD be the glory. In JESUS Name. Amen.
