Words of Jesus
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch of mine that bears no fruit, he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already made clean by the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you. By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be my disciples.
John15:1-8
Who loves God, finds pleasure in everything; who not loves God, finds no true pleasure in anything
— St Alphonsus Liguori
Abba, Father, Lord God, I try and hold the day back looking to start it with You, daily distractions and lack of discipline slow me down, but I am thankful for the seed You planted in my heart keeps reminding me I am best when I keep You first. So here I am fed be the living Words of Jesus, inspired and conscious of the Holy Spirit within me looking to You for knowledge and wisdom for today, always thankful for this day and all Your blessings which have brought me to this moment and always seeking Your will and direction. So let my mind be guided by my heart; a heart likened to the heart of Jesus, always connected and abiding so that I may bear fruit that is pleasing to You. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
