ABIDING IN ME
An amazing event happened on the cross
It is the reason Christ abides in me.
A gift so great it makes me pause
To think what happened on that tree.
The life I now live is Christ in me
A marvel hard to understand
God knew what He had to achieve
His love for us, He had it planned.
I am the branch, He is the vine
Apart from the vine I cannot be.
Bearing much fruit is to obey
Lord, please guide me along the way.
The way to glorify God is to bear fruit
Showing my love in gratitude
Abiding in me
Glorifying you Lord.

COMMENT ON ABIDING IN ME
I ask myself, when did I know for sure that I had the
spirit abiding in me? According to the Word it was when
I surrendered my life to Jesus. At the time I didn’t feel
any different but I knew in my heart something had
happened.
Months later when I was troubled and seeking was when
I actually felt His presence. After that I was guided to
start “Feed My Sheep”. I knew I was doing God’s will.
Doors opened at every turn. I would take one step
forward in faith and the impossible would happen.
I am so impressed with the many who have incredible
faith and act without having any spiritual experience,
but have that deep belief that shows how they live
their lives.
In John, Jesus said,
“Blessed are those who have not seen and yet
have believed”.
God in His grace treats all of us differently. He had a
plan for me, and knew I needed His presence to
accomplish it.
John 20:29
Then Jesus told him,”Because you have seen me,
you have believed; blessed are those who have
not seen and yet have believed
