Ok, I know this is a play on words and perhaps just a "tad" Corney, but it does make a point- we need to be close to Jesus!
Why is this important?
John, Chapter 15 (WEB)
1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer. 2 Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me. 5 I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned. (emp. added GDR)
How do we do this?
1 Thessalonians, Chapter 5 (WEB)
17 Pray without ceasing.
To put it another way...
And listen to Snoopy as well!!!
