Remain

“Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me.”
John 15:4

Love this simple message today. All God asks of us is to remain. Remain in Him, and He, in return, will remain in us. Sometimes this remaining means being still, spending some time with Him in the early mornings or late evenings. Sometimes remaining in God may look like sitting beside a sick friend’s bedside in the hospital and whispering gentle prayers over them. And sometimes remaining might look like serving those around you with an open mind and grateful heart, knowing that He is the One that has it all under control, no matter how hard or long the days may seem.

Today, let’s remain. Would you join Hope Ministries in prayers for those both near and far? Would you ask God to provide financially to this mission in Tanzania that He has laid upon our hearts, and would you be still today with a mind and heart full of gratitude for the lives we have been given?

Let us be thankful for the life we have, and let us offer up ourselves again to the One who deserves it most.

With Love,

Hope Ministries
