Continuously eat and continuously abide.

John 6:56 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. Foundational to living to love with Jesus is abiding in Jesus. For God to receive glory from our lives, our love must flow from Jesus, the Vine. As branches, fruit-bearing occurs as we abide in the vine. In this verse, Jesus told the crowd how they may receive the bread of life, not die, and live forever. The one who eats His flesh and drinks His blood abides, which is a continual action, in Jesus and Jesus abides in him. The Father gave this bread of life for His glory. He gets all the praise and honor from our lives as we abide in Jesus, filling ourselves with the life of Christ. The love that flows from Jesus in us is the fruit that glorifies the Father. This gives us great encouragement to know that we are pleasing to the Father and fulfilling our purpose in Christ. What a great honor it is to be branches of the Vine, displaying the fruit that brings joy to both the Father and the Son, and also to us. This occurs as we continuously abide in Jesus and He in us, as we continuously eat of Him. May we be filled with the joy of the Lord as we live to love with Jesus today.
