Abide in the Vine

"I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing."
John 15:5

Fruit is not the branch's achievement — it is the vine's overflow. Your job today is not to produce, but to abide. Stay connected. The life you long to bear will grow out of the union you never leave.

Prayer

Jesus, keep me in You today. Let every good thing that grows through me be the fruit of abiding, not striving. Amen.
