St Mary's-Greyfriars'

Daily Bible verse


   1"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.
   2He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.
   3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
   4Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
   5"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
John 15:1-5 (NIV)
