IN GOD’S HANDS

“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.”

(John 15:4)

As we dwell in God, He dwells in us through the Holy Spirit inside us to teach and guide us.

Complete trust and consistent fellowship with our Saviour, with an undivided heart and faith, is the connection needed to bear abundant spiritual fruit for the kingdom of God. The character of Christ is manifest in the fruit of the committed Christian.

ACTION:  Resolve to trust and abide in the Lord always. PRAYER: Lord, I place my loved ones, as well as the gifts, talents and treasures all which come from you, into your able hands and ask that you take away all that will distract me from loving and following you wholeheartedly.
