Stay Close

Reading: John 10:10; John 15:4-5; Psalm 1:1-3

Devotional: Jesus came to give abundant life. That means a life FULL of joy, peace, purpose and rich in love. Yet abundance requires remaining connected to the Source. Like a jar that can only pour out what it contains, you can only give what you've received. When you pour into others through service, discipleship, and love, you'll eventually run dry unless you stay close to Jesus. The blessed person in Psalm 1 is like a tree planted by streams of water, constantly nourished, perpetually fruitful. Don't just visit the Source occasionally; dwell there. Make daily time with Jesus non-negotiable. Through Scripture, prayer, worship, and fasting, position yourself where living water flows continuously. Then rivers of living water will overflow from your innermost being, bringing life to everyone around you. Stay connected. Stay filled. STAY CLOSE.
