John 15:4-7 says “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you." As believers, we have the great privilege of living a life of constant, moment by moment connection with the Lord. The closer you are to God, the more you experience His peace, His love, His power, His joy, His health, His provision and more in your everyday life. Just how close you are depends on you, because He’s already given it all to you in Jesus Christ! Stay connected with him as you walk through life this week and be encouraged by his goodness!
