Brothers' Bread Episode 26: The Good Tree

<p>“What if all of us became the Good Tree, and bore good fruit?” &nbsp;- Br. Martin Sellner FSC</p> <p><strong>Eight Sunday in Ordinary Time Reading from Luke 6:39-45</strong></p> <p>Jesus told his disciples a parable,<br> “Can a blind person guide a blind person?<br> Will not both fall into a pit?<br> No disciple is superior to the teacher;<br> but when fully trained,<br> every disciple will be like his teacher.<br> Why do you notice the splinter in your brother’s eye,<br> but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own?<br> How can you say to your brother,<br> ‘Brother, let me remove that splinter in your eye,’<br> when you do not even notice the wooden beam in your own eye?<br> You hypocrite!&nbsp; Remove the wooden beam from your eye first;<br> then you will see clearly<br> to remove the splinter in your brother’s eye.<br> <br> “A good tree does not bear rotten fruit,<br> nor does a rotten tree bear good fruit.<br> For every tree is known by its own fruit.<br> For people do not pick figs from thornbushes,<br> nor do they gather grapes from brambles.<br> A good person out of the store of goodness in his heart produces good,<br> but an evil person out of a store of evil produces evil;<br> for from the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks.”</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/yesbro">#YesBro</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/brothersbread">#BrothersBread</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/delasalleph">#DeLaSallePH</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/dlsbrothersph">#DLSBrothersPH</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/fscvocations">#FSCvocations</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/sundayreflections">#SundayReflections</a></p>
