Proverbs of a 41 yr. old man

Say more with less series: A branch cut off from a tree bears no seed. Even the fruit that it has gets rotted instead of pruned for more growth. But a branch connected to a tree bears much seed. Even the fruit that is harvested is desirable to eat and has good seed for planting. Jesus says in John 15:1-4 I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit, he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. Amen. Imagine with me if Jesus is the Vine and we are His Branches, how big and beautiful is this tree? I have added a picture to this message to stir your heart with wonder and awe.
