Protection from self-reliance

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. (John 15:5 NIV)

Don't run from hard times!   Embrace every circumstance in your life knowing that if you remain in Christ He will work all things for good. 

When stress comes , and it will - let those feelings alert you to rely on God instead of yourself.  Trust God, walk in the spirit and pray all the time!   This effort will invite God to direct your thoughts and actions.  

Less self ,  more god!
