The prayer
A prayer to pray now
Lord Jesus, You taught that the branch cannot bear fruit by itself. It has to stay connected to the vine. That verse used to make me anxious. Today it gives me peace. I am not the one who makes the fruit grow. I am the branch. My part is staying close to You. The fruit comes from that closeness, not from me trying harder. Let me stay close to You this morning. In the rocking chair. In the small prayer. In the quiet, leaning on You. The fruit will come in Your time. I do not have to force it before breakfast. The vine is Yours. The fruit is Yours. The staying is what I bring. Amen.
