Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
John 15:4 ESV
Im sure all of us can share how hard these last seven months have been for us, being home a lot more than we might like. Having to deal with people, working through conflict, considering other’s feelings and emotions is always going to be harder than doing life alone. But Jesus says that abiding in him, living in him, doing life with him and not alone means your life will be fruitful. Fruit represents life. Jesus says if you are connected to him, you will live! So what’s does a life Apart from him mean? Apart from him means death! Let’s consider the kind of life we want for ourselves and choose life. It might be more difficult to work through considering other’s, wanting relationship with God, but it means life will flow through you and that you will bare much fruit!
