Draw me closer to You, Lord.

John 15:5 (NIV)

5"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."

How can we accomplish anything on our own? I believe the greatest mistake I make is when I start to function without the life support of the vine. Just like the vine is the life giver to the branches and is responsible for the fruit, so is God in our lives. How much more fruitful we would be if we would stay connected to the vine.
