Connected

What happens when I stay connected to Jesus?

God’s Response

I am the true grapevine. . . . 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. 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. John 15:1, 4-5

When you are connected to Jesus, he turns your simple acts into something profound and purposeful. For example, he turns your simple act of singing into a profound chorus of praise that ministers to an entire congregation. He turns your simple act of placing your tithe in the offering plate into a profound act of mercy that touches the heart of the needy person who receives it. He turns your simple act of telling others your faith story into a profound moment in the heart of a friend who suddenly realizes his or her need for salvation. Stay connected to Jesus and let him turn your simple acts of service into profound works for the Kingdom of God.

This Is Promising

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Ephesians 3:20
