What more could have been done for my vineyard than I have done for it? – Isaiah 5:4

Brought out in “Everything is Fine When Connected to the Vine” is that the vineyard or nation of Israel had briers and thorns growing which kept the vines or people from being fruitful.

The main Vine is Jesus and His followers are those connected to Him. Briers and thorns like bad habits don’t seem harmful until they grow to entangle the vines and block the sunlight. The good news is that God can cultivate and remove them one day at a time if one seeks the Truth with discipline and follows His Way.

Let’s use today’s song Build My Life – Pat Barrett (Ft. Cory Asbury) as a declaration to build our life one day at a time in order to make our future better. Maybe it involves readjusted priorities or taking inventory of how we spend our time and money. There is always room for improvement and our mission as a disciple of Christ is to build our life on the lessons that are taught in God’s Word.
