Fruitfulness

I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart me you can do nothing (John 15:5). Do you want to be more fruitful in your endeavours for Christ? We all want to see results. Whether it is producing the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) or seeing the spiritual fruit of new souls being won to Christ, we cannot produce anything on our own. We must abide and remain in Christ, as a branch that receives it nourishment and life from the vine. The branch does not do anything. It just remains connected! His life then flows through us to produce results.

In His Hands
We know not what tomorrow brings although we plan ahead. For only God alone can know the pathway we must tread. We cannot know the future, not one minute nor one hour. Each circumstance that we must face lay only in His power. It's vital that we live by faith from minute unto minute......and trusting that each step we take, He's walking with us in it. We cannot see the future nor the trials we must face. But in all things, God promised us sufficiency of grace. This alone should give us hope, whatever be our plans, in knowing that our future lies in His sweet, loving hands.
