I AM THE TRUE VINE, AND MY FATHER IS THE VINEDRESSER
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in me that bears no fruit he cuts away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes to make it bear even more. You are pruned already, by means of the word that I have spoken to you. Make your home in me, as I make mine in you. As a branch cannot bear fruit all by itself, but must remain part of the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me. CDR
I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me, with me in him, bears fruit in plenty; for cut off from me you can do nothing. Anyone who does not remain in me is like a branch that has been thrown away – he withers; these branches are collected and thrown on the fire, and they are burnt.
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask what you will and you shall get it. It is to the glory of my Father that you should bear much fruit, and then you will be my disciples.’
Lord Jesus you break all barriers by coming into our world. You the true vine unit all God’s children to be members of your body as various branches. Make us one in your Church. Your words are seeds that bear fruits, as we listen to your words may thy words abide in us. May we remain in you and bear fruits. Prune us, make us increase in good works. Come dwell in us as we make our home in you. Lord for without you we are helpless.
I am yours Lord the true vine, I want to remains in you that I may bear fruits in abundant. I cannot realize this if I cut away from you. I do not to be cast away into eternal damnation, Lord I want to live and behold God’s glory. I want to remain in you, may your words abide in me. Make me bear fruits through the power of the Holy Spirit this I ask of you to the glory of God the Father. I am yours Lord.
