How Deep Are Your Roots


John 15:4-5 (NKJV)

 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of 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, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

~Prayer~

For one another that you will practice abiding in Christ "today so that when the storm hits you'll stand strong as a couple"

~Something To Ponder~

How deep are your roots of faith? Is there something in you life right now that God has been speaking to you about that requires your obedience?
