7/09 John 15:1-4
1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more. 3 You have already been pruned for greater fruitfulness by the message I have given you. 4 Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful apart from me.
FRUITFUL
As we seek to serve the Lord too often we get on our own and decide to do things now. It is difficult at times to wait on the Lord. We like to do things our way. Our way is the very definition of failure. Without going the Lord’s way I will mess up everything. Speak Lord for your servant listens. And then I pray Lord that I will be quick to obey.
