Beautiful Fruit
“I am the vine, and you are the branches. If you stay joined to me, and I stay joined to you, then you will produce lots of fruit. But you can’t do anything without me.”
John 15:5

In your baptism, you were joined or grafted to Jesus, who is the vine.

You have grown as a branch fed by the life-giving power of your Lord.

The secret is to stay connected to Jesus, so that you receive his power as you read God’s Word, and come to the Lord’s supper.

Let us pray
Lord Jesus, make me aware of what a privilege it is, to be able to bear good fruit for you in my life.
Help me always to stay connected to you, because I can’t do anything that pleases God without you.
We ask this in Your Name, Amen.
