Jesus says he is the vine, we are the branches, and God is the one with the pruning shears. God pruning us sounds painful. I don’t think that pruning is so much something that God does to us as it is a process that God invites us into. I’m not a big believer in the idea that God makes things happen in our lives in order to shape us. I do believe that even at our birth God has a shape in mind for us, that is particular to us, and is beautiful.
