Lent Meditations
40 Days in the Vineyard
Day 5: I am the true vine
Jesus’ DNA, which was truly God from before the beginning and is now also truly human, is the true root stock of the new creation. With this one statement, Jesus opened a new chapter in history.
Day 13: Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me
The fruit our life bears will only appear if we remain in Christ. It can be tempting to think that our life’s fruit is something we achieve through our hard work, but it is not like that. Our life’s fruit comes quite naturally through staying connected to the Vine and receiving the life and DNA of the Vine.
