“My Father is the Vinedresser” (John 15:1–8)
As John looked at new growth on the grapevines the other morning, he was reminded: growth always comes from connection.
Jesus is the Vine.
We are the branches.
And the Father lovingly tends every detail of our lives.
Pruning isn’t punishment—it’s preparation.
Abiding isn’t striving—it’s resting.
Fruitfulness isn’t forced—it’s formed through connection.
When we remain in Christ, His life flows through us.
And the result? A life that glorifies God.
“Abide in Me, and I in you.”
