Wednesday of Week 12 in Ordinary Time

Beware of false prophets.
That come to you in sheep’s clothing.
With their beguiling tenets.
Which barely are worth a farthing.

Are grapes gathered from thorn bushes.
Or figs from thorn bushes.

Truth comes in flickering flashes.
Our thoughts caught in negative meshes.
So every healthy tree bears good fruit.
But the diseased tree bears bad fruit.
A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit.
Nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit.
Are we the healthy tree.
Or the diseased tree.
…..
Beware false prophets
They come wearing sheep’s clothing
Do we follow them
……
See Matthew 7 : 15-20
