Scripture — John 15:5 “Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit.”

READ
Read the verse slowly.

REFLECT
What does it mean to you to “abide” in Jesus?

RESPOND
Ask Jesus to help you remain connected to Him throughout your day.

REST
Simply remain with Jesus for a few quiet moments.

PRAYER
Jesus, help me stay connected to You today. Let my life produce fruit because I am abiding in You. Amen.

There is no need to rush through these four steps.

Some days you may spend ten minutes. Other days you may spend twenty. Some days the Scripture may feel powerful and personal. Other days it may seem quiet.

That's okay!

The goal isn't to finish the devotional.

The goal is to meet with God.
