A prayer to pray now
Jesus, a vine cannot stand on its own. It falls over if it is not attached to something strong. That is me without You. I cannot do much on my own. But with You, I can grow good fruit. Today I want to stay close to You. I do not want to run off and do things by myself. I do not want to pretend I am stronger than I am. Hold me close to the trunk. Amen.
