Stick to the vine

John 15:4-6
4 Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me.
5 “Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.
6 Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers. Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned

The word lets us know the importance of being connected to the true source of life,of the true source of power. Our Lord uses the analogy of the vineyard, of the vine and the branches.

Just as a wild vine attaches it self to a tree and begins to receive its nourishment from it and grow the same way God expects us to cling to him to receive nutrients so that we can grow and begin to bear fruit.Jesus is the vine, God the Father is the vine grower, and the true believers are the branches.

As branches we are spiritually alive; yet we can only grow if we are connected to him,if we are connected to the true vine, apart from Him we begin to dry up and die spiritually. Having a form of worship, going through the motions,doing absolutely nothing with our lives.

As long as we are connected to Jesus the power of the Holy Spirit can run in us and keep us spiritually alive. So we need to stick to the vine.
