John 15:4-7

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. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. (ESV)

Lord, Jesus – we yearn to bear fruit for you with thankful hearts for our salvation; let us always remember that we need to abide in you to bear that fruit! Amen
