Good afternoon friends, I write this today out of love for my brethren. Are you abiding in our Lord Jesus? We see the storm clouds approaching; are we watching our life closely, do others see the Lord in our lives? These are sobering questions to say the least; but we must. In John 15, the Lord showed the importance of abiding in Him. In abiding we simply ‘rest’ in our wonderful position in our Lord Jesus Christ; as the fruit rests on the branch it gets its live ‘sap’ from the branch. The Lord said He is the vine we are the branches. ‘And now, little children, abide in Him; that, when He shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before Him at His coming’ (1st John 2:28). I love you all—Jeff
