(AMP) John 15: 4Dwell in Me, and I will dwell in you. [Live in Me, and I will live in you.] Just as no branch can bear fruit of itself without abiding in (being vitally united to) the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in Me.

We are fruitless without God. We find our nourishment in God and within God’s word. If we fail to feed ourselves, we don’t grow.

Diligently (even when we don’t feel like it; even when our sins seem to separate us) read God’s Word and communicate with Him. He has promised us that as we live in Him, He will continue to live in us, and then we will continue to thrive. Praise God for the opportunity to live and grow in Him!!
