I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. John 15:5 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/jhn.15.5/68514

There are times in our lives when we are going through things that we think we have to face alone. We go through life wondering if there is a better way to do and understand things. We read books on self help, we go to google to find quick answers, we go to our friends for advice, but do we really take it? We walk around aimlessly lost in our own thoughts never realizing that we have someone who is always there for us to give us the answers to the things that we go through in life.

There is no reason for us to stress about things, but we do. There is no reason for us to let things depress us, but we do. There is no reason for us to let things cause us anxiety, but we do. Why is that? Why do we forget about the Only One who holds it all in His Hands? Is it easy for us to become complacent in our lives? Why do we often forget about the True Vine? Why is it so hard for us to remember that we are connected to the True Vine who gives us life, who sustains us, who carries all of our burdens, who blesses us when we sometimes don’t even deserve it? When we stay connected to the True Vine all things are possible, but when we disconnect ourselves from the True Vine, we miss out on everything. Without the True Vine we can do nothing. We are nothing without the True Vine who sustains us. Our True Vine is Jesus Christ, and we are the branches. Let us not forget what Jesus said. He is the Vine and We are the Branches. Without the Vine giving life the branches cannot survive and bear fruit, so therefore they are cut off and thrown into the fire and burned.

When you look at a green branch of any kind, just know that it is connected to the vine that sustains it. We must be rooted and grounded in the Vine, the roots is what gives the vine life, and the vine gives the branches life; simply because if the roots were not alive to receive water from the life source the vine would die and so would the branches. The branches would not be able to drink from the life giving source from the Vine.

Yes, Jesus calls us branches because we are apart of Him. He came to die that we may live. We live because He lives, and His Spirit lives inside of us. He lives inside our hearts. Without His Holy Spirit, we would be in a sad fix for the rest of our lives. When we need anything, or need to know anything we can go to Jesus. He loves us. He wants us to come to Him with everything that we are going through. With that being said, have a blessed and safe day in Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen.

Grace – Bing

It is wonderful when we are given grace from God. It is excellent when He gives us favor. It is a blessing when God smiles on us and gives us the desires of our heart. What would we do without grace? We would not be able to do the things that we do if it were not for God’s grace on us. God’s grace is amazing!

WHEN WE THINK ABOUT WHAT GOD DOES FOR US

When we think about what God does for us, it will take a lifetime to tell it all. There are things that He does for us that we do not even recognize from time to time. He gives us strength when we are weak. He answers our payers when we do not even recognize it until later. He watches over us when we are not paying attention to things that are around us that could hurt us. He is always moving things out of the way for us, and opening doors for us that no man can shut. He comforts our heart when we are feeling at out lowest point, He provides food for us when we do not have anything to eat. He makes a way for us when there seems to be no way. He is always there to help us. We can call on Him any time day or night; it does not matter, He will always answer us when we call.

When we think about what God does for us, it makes our heart happy. We are grateful to Him for the things that He does for us. We are thankful that He forgives us for our mistakes that we make on a daily basis. What would we do without Him? Where would we be without Him? We cannot live without Him. We cannot have our lives without Him. We would be lost souls without Him. Let us always be thankful for the things that He does for us, because without Him we are nothing. Without Him there would be no us. There would be no life at all on this earth. It would be just as dark as it was before He created it. So, when we feel like God is not doing anything for us, let us all think again and look around us and see all of the beautiful things that He has given to us to enjoy. He did all of this for us because He loves us, and that love will never change. It will always reman the same forever.

The Lord is good to all of us every day. There has never been a day that He hasn’t been good. When we wait on Him He is god to us. He sent His only Son to this earth to die for our sins, if that is not good then I do not know what is. His love is what is good. It is the greatest love of all. His love is so good. It makes us want to love our enemies and forgive those who has wonged us. Take some time to read over this Scripture and think about how good God’s love is. Stay blessed.
