Spiritual Vitamin: Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me." John 15:4
Reflect: The word "abide" (meno') means "to stay, abide, remain, wait." "One of the Hebrew translations would have them to "cleave, follow close, join together as if glued." A vine is connected to the branch in a symbiotic relationship. Without the branch, the fruit cannot be born.(Devotableapp.com, John 15:4 Abide in Me)
What does it look like to abide in Jesus? What does it look like throughout your day? And what happens if you don't abide?
For me personally, to abide is to continually live my life with Jesus. An honest open dialogue. Confession. Gratitude. Listening. Learning. Asking. Just loving Jesus and living with Him each day. May you abide with Jesus today and in the days ahead.
