Vine (7 of 7)
Series: The Right Now Jesus - I Am Statements
Steve Wagers
John 15:1,5
I AM for Our Spiritual ABUNDANCE
Family decided to cut down an old apple tree. The tree was the escape route for their teenage son to get out of his room late at night. Not wanting the tree cut down, he asked his parents to pray about it, and if it started producing fruit, not to cut it down. They prayed, and within a week the mother said, ''It's a miracle. That's the first time I ever saw an apple tree with pears hanging from the branches.''
