Praying in Jesus’ Name

And Jesus taught His followers, saying:

I Am the vine,
you the branches.

As you abide in Me
and I reside in you,
your life becomes fruitful.

Without Me, this will not happen!
Instead you will be cast away
like yard clippings
that either wither
or fuel only a fire.

Abide in Me!
Live in Me,
and My words will live
in you.

Then

you will draw on My words
to ask whatever you need,
and it shall happen!

Your fruitful lives
will glorify My Father
Who grafts you into Me
as My disciples.

God the Father loves Me,
and in the same Way of Love,
I love you.

Live in that love,
and whatever you ask
of love
in My Name,
God the Father will give.
