And sometimes what looks like nurturing or serving is actually just... control in disguise.Jesus offers us the truth that control was never our job. We are the branches. He is the vine. And apart from Him, we can do nothing — which means we were never meant to do it all anyway.Surrender isn't waving a white flag in defeat. It's the moment victory actually begins. Reference: John 15:5 Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for reminding us that you are the vine and we are the branches. Help us to abide in you daily, and to remember it’s not our role to control, and apart from you, we can do nothing. May we bear much fruit, be a light that shines brightly, say yes when the yes is meant for us, and allow your joy in us to overflow and pour out over our families, as we surrender all to you. In Jesus’ name, amen. Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
