John 15:5 - I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.

LIVING IN UNION WITH JESUS

The key action in this verse is "to remain". Other words for it are: to stay connected, to abide consistently, to live in union.

As the vine, Jesus is to be an essential part of our daily lives so that His presence flows into all our actions, words, thoughts and emotions.

When we are rooted in unity with Him, the fruit of the Holy Spirit becomes evident in us - love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
