Canon S45

"I am the true vine and my Father is the vinegrower. If any of my branches doesn't bear fruit, he breaks it off; and he prunes every branch that does bear fruit, that it may bear even more fruit.

"You are already made clean by the word I have spoken to you; live in me as I live in you. The branch cannot bear fruit by itself but has to remain part of the vine; so neither can you if you don't remain in me.

"I am the vine and you are the branches. As long as you remain in me and I in you, you bear much fruit; but apart from me you can do nothing. Whoever does not remain in me is thrown away as they do with branches and they wither. Then they are gathered and thrown into the fire and burned.

"If you remain in me and my words in you, you may ask whatever you want and it will be given to you. My Father is glorified when you bear much fruit: it is then that you become my disciples."

JOHN 15:1-8

"I have told you this now before it takes place, so that when it does happen you may believe.

Your Real Worth

From www.Forbes.com

"He is the living stone rejected by people but chosen by God and precious to him. On drawing close to him, you also became living stones built into a spiritual temple, a holy community of priests offering spiritual sacrifices which please God through Jesus Christ. Scripture says: See, I lay in Zion a chosen and precious cornerstone; whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.

"This means honor for you who believed, but for unbelievers also the stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone and it is a stone to stumble over, a rock which lays people low. They stumble over it in rejecting the Word, but the plan of God is fulfilled in this.

"You are a chosen race, a community of priest-kings, a consecrated nation, a people God has made his own to proclaim his wonders. For he called you from your darkness to his own wonderful light."

"'All that I say to you, I do not say of myself. The Father who dwells in me is doing his own work. Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; at least believe it on the evidence of these works that I do.

"'Truly, I say to you, the one who believes in me will do the same works that I do; and he will even do greater than these, for I am going to the Father.

A Shepherd's Voice

"The time came for the feast of Dedication. It was winter and Jesus walked back and forth in the portico of Solomon. The Jews then gathered around him and said to him, 'How long will you keep us in doubt? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.' Jesus answered, 'I have already told you but you do not believe. The works I do in my Father's name proclaim who I am, but you don't believe because, as I said, you are not my sheep.

"'My sheep hear my voice and I know them, they follow me and I give them eternal life. They shall never perish and no one will ever steal them from me. What the Father has given me is stronger than everything and no one can snatch it from the Father's hand. I and the Father are one.'"

"I am the good shepherd, I know my own and my own know me, as the Father knows me and I know the Father. Because of this I give my life for my sheep.

"I have other sheep that are not of this fold. These I have to lead as well, and they shall listen to my voice. Then there will be one flock since there is one Shepherd.

When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them and the sheep follow him for they know his voice. A stranger they will not follow, rather they will run away from him because they don't recognize a stranger's voice.'

"Jesus used this comparison, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.

"So Jesus said, 'Truly, I say to you, I am the gate of the sheep. All who came were thieves and robbers, and the sheep did not hear them. I am the gate. Whoever enters through me will be saved; he will go in and out freely and find food.

"'The thief comes to steal and kill and destroy, but I have come that they may have life, life in all its fullness.'"

"Meanwhile, the Church had peace. It was building up throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria with eyes turned to the Lord and filled with comfort from the Holy Spirit.

"As Peter traveled around, he went to visit the saints who lived in Lydda. There he found a man named Aeneas who was paralyzed, and had been bedridden for eight years. Peter said to him, 'Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you; get up and make your bed!' And the man got up at once. All the people living in Lydda and Sharon saw him and turned to the Lord.

"There was a disciple in Joppa named Tabitha, which means Dorcas or Gazelle. She was always doing good works and helping the poor. At that time she fell sick and died. After having washed her body, they laid her in the upstairs room.

"As Lydda is near Joppa, the disciples, on hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him with the request, 'Please come to us without delay.'

"So Peter went with them. On his arrival they took him upstairs to the room. All the widows crowded around him in tears, showing him the clothes which Dorcas had made while she was with them. Peter made them all leave the room and then he knelt down and prayed. Turning to the dead body he said, 'Tabitha, stand up.' She opened her eyes, looked at Peter and sat up. Peter gave her his hand and helped her up. Then he called in the saints and widows and presented her to them alive. This became known throughout all of Joppa and many people believed in the Lord because of it."

"'My flesh is really food and my blood is drink. Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood, live in me and I in them.

Sweet Reunion

"That same day, two of them were going to Emmaus, a village seven miles from Jerusalem, and they talked about what happened . While they were talking and wondering, Jesus came up and walked with them, but their eyes were held and they did not recognize him.

"He asked, 'What is this you are talking about?' The two stood still, looking sad. Then one named Cleophas answered, 'Why, it seems you are the only traveller in Jerusalem who doesn't know what has happened there these past few days.' And he asked, 'What is it?'

"They replied, 'It is about Jesus of Nazareth. He was a prophet, yhou know, mighty in word and deed before God and the people. But the chief priests and our rulers sentenced him to death. They handed him over to be crucified. We had hoped that he would redeem Israel.

"'It is now the third day since all this took place. It is true that some women of our group have disturbed us. When they went to the tomb at dawn, they did not find his body; they came to tell us that they had seen a vision of angels who told them that Jesus was alive. Some friends of our group went to the tomb and found everything just as the women had said, but they did not see him.'

"He said to them, 'How dull you are, how slow of understanding! You fail to believe the message of the prophets. Is it not written that the Christ should suffer all this and then enter his glory?' Then starting with Moses and going through the prophets, he explained to them everything in the Scriptures concerning himself.

"As they drew near the village they were heading for, Jesus made as if to go farther. But they prevailed upon him, 'Stay with us, for night comes quickly. The day is now almost over.' So he went in to stay with them. When they were at table, he took the bread, said a blessing, broke it and gave each a piece.

"Then their eyes were opened, and they recognized him; but he vanished out of their sight. And they said to each other, 'Were not our hearts filled with ardent yearning when he was talking to us on the road and explaining the Scriptures?'

"They immediately set out and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and their companions gathered together. They were greeted by these words: 'Yes, it is true, the Lord is risen! He has appeared to Simon!' Then the two told what had happened on the road and how Jesus made himself known when he broke bread with them."

"Then lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw the crowds that were coming to him and said to Philip, 'Where shall we buy bread so that these people may eat?' He said this to test Philip, for he himself knew what he was going to do. Philip answered him, 'Two hundred silver coins would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a piece.'

"Then one of Jesus' disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said, 'There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish: but what good are these for so many?'

"Jesus said, 'Make the people sit down.' There was plenty of grass there so the people, about five thousand men, sat down to rest. Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks and distributed them to those who were seated. He did the same with the fish and gave them as much as they wanted. And when they had eaten enough, he told his disciples, 'Gather up the pieces left over, that nothing may be lost.'
