January 4th, 2026 | Spiritual growth doesn’t come from trying harder—it comes from staying connected. Like a branch depends on the vine, our lives thrive when we remain in Christ and surrender to the Father’s pruning. True connection transforms our actions, our joy, and the love we show to others. The question isn’t just what we do—it’s whether we are abiding daily in His presence, letting His Spirit flow through us. The branch that stays close to the Vine will always bear fruit; the invitation is to stay connected and see what God produces.
