Seed for Aug 10

The branch (a believer) gets its life from Vine (Jesus) and we are admonished to continue being attached to the Vine. If we do not remain in the Vine and allow His Word to remain in us, then we will wither away for we will be disconnected from the Life of the Vine, and good for only being burned. This is a serious admonition to all believers. We can do nothing of ourselves for the Life of the Believer comes from being connected to the Life that is in the Vine. The natural laws of nature speak this story to us loud and clear. When I trim a branch from the tree is will not continue to live because it has been separated from its life source. We are connected to Jesus as our life source and thru Him we produce fruit and apart from Him we can do nothing.
