He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
John 15:2, 4 NIV
Reflection:
The path to discipleship is challenging; for not only you are called to bear fruit, but from time to time you will be pruned to bear much more. And though this can be intimidating, Jesus assures us that with Him all things are possible. Therefore, we ought to remain in Him through his word and sacrament and we shall bear fruit.
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to remain in his word, made flesh in Jesus Christ his son, our Lord and Saviour. May his Holy Spirit always direct your steps to take refuge in Him. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
