Vinegrower -
From You comes the true vine whose words cleanse us and to whom our branches belong.
May we abide in the true vine, so our discipled lives bear fruit. May we trust Your pruning process - a process that encourages us to bear more fruit.
May we humbly remember that apart from the true vine, we can do nothing and that separation from the true vine leads to withering lives.
May Your cleansing words abide in us, and may we abide in You - an abiding, true relationship in which we boldly ask for whatever we wish.
As our branches bear fruit and as we become your disciples, You are glorified.
In the name of our indwelling God, we pray.
Amen.
