Dependency

“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
– John 15:1-5

Where are you bearing fruit in your life? What areas need to be pruned? Sit before the Lord quietly. Review your day with Him. Where did you feel close and connected to the Lord? Where did you feel resistance and disconnection? Spend time in prayer. Ask the Lord to help you be totally dependent on Him. Pray that we as a church can be too.

Take time to pray and reflect…
