In today's gospel reading, Jesus tells the story of the unproductive Fig tree. Out of His love and compassion asks for more time to change our ways and follow in his path in order to bear good fruit. 

But we must allow ourselves to be pruned. We must also allow the soil to be fertilized and cultivated in a variety of ways. Though Jesus is the Gardener of our lives, it’s also fair to say that we are the gardeners in the sense that we must cooperate with our Lord, relying upon the supernatural resources of the Creator to ensure the healthy growth of our spiritual lives so that the good fruit of virtue may be born in our lives.
