Quote:
To live by faith is a far surer and happier thing than to live by
feelings or by works, The branch, by living in the vine, lives a
better life than it would live by itself, even if it were possible
for it to live at all apart from the stem. ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
John 15:5-6 NASB
"I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him,
he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. If anyone
does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and
they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned.
Prayer:
My Lord Jesus,
If I tear my branch away from the Vine, I will quickly wither and die.
You have grafted me onto You for good reason -- so that I may be
amply nourished and that I may flourish. It is by faith, and faith alone,
that I remain grafted unto You. Make this union strong. In the name of
Jesus I pray. Amen.
