As human beings we need daily provision, forgiveness and strength in the face of temptation. John 15:4 says ‘Remain in me, and you will bear much fruit.’ Life can become difficult when you are not remaining. Our struggle in life is not to bear fruit, but for our roots to find water. God’s will is greater than our will. He is our source, our provision and the One who everything good flows from. Over these next ten days, allow your roots to become deeper and seek Him more.
