“80: O MY SERVANTS! Ye are the trees of My garden; ye must give forth…”

O MY SERVANTS! Ye are the trees of My garden; ye must give forth goodly and wondrous fruits, that ye yourselves 51 and others may profit therefrom.

For results depend upon means, and the grace of God shall be all-sufficient unto you. Trees that yield no fruit have been and will ever be for the fire.
