JACK AND THE BEANSTALK

In the story of Jack and the Beanstalk, Jack's mother has to sell their family cow, in order to make ends meet,and it is Jack's duty to sell it, only on the way into town,he meets a man who persuades him to sell his cow for 5 magical beans! Jacks mother is furious over his decision and throws the beans out the window, where they sprout up into a beanstalk overnight, and grow up into the clouds!Jack climbs up the beanstalk the next day, where he finds a cottage that houses a little lady and a mean giant, that would delight in doing nothing more than killing Jack.As the giant comes into his house to count his gold, he says: "Fee Fi Fo Fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman;
Be he alive, or be he dead, I'll have his bones to grind my bread."
As soon as the giant fell asleep, Jack would silently sneak in the house and take back his bag of gold, and run to the beanstalk.He would quickly climb back down to his home where he would give his mother the riches !He repeated this process the next day,where he waited until the giant fell asleep and took a hen that laid golden eggs. He climbed back down the beanstalk with the hen, and he and his mother were once again able to live comfortably .Jack went up one last time, and took the singing harp, but the harp cried out
"Master! Master!" as he was being taken, and the giant woke up and gave chase to Jack. Jack ran to the beanstalk with the giant in pursuit. As Jack hit the ground, he felled that beanstalk with an axe and killed the giant!Jack and his mother enjoyed their treasures without fear of the giant returning!
In real life, we have our very own strong living vine that will reach towards Heaven, for us.~~~~~ He is Jesus Christ!He is the True Vine and His Father is The Vinedresser.
We don't have to climb up to Him, but we have straight access through Him through His Son,~~~ Jesus Christ. When satan tries to steal away all our treasures, the Word of God is sharper than any two edged sword,and we can cut him off at the stalk before he even gets started!
