What a simple thing it is to be the branch of a tree or the branch of a vine!
The branch grows out of the vine or out of the tree, and there it lives and grows and, in due time, bears fruit.
It has no responsibility except just to receive from the root and stem sap and nourishment.
And if we only Knew by the Holy Spirit our Relationship to Jesus Christ, our life would be Changed into the Brightest and Most Heavenly Thing upon earth.
