Back to Basics
Sara Jukes
Using the passage in John 15 in which Jesus describes himself as the real vine and we are the branches, Sara Jukes shares a personal testimony about what God has been doing in and through her during her recent sabbatical. Like many people in the bible, we ask God plenty of ‘why’ questions. Instead, Sara encourages us to get to know the who! God, the gardener knows best! He prunes and breaks off the fruitful branches and the bad ones, in order that the plant will survive the winter and flourish in future seasons. We are to trust Jesus and acknowledge that He is the hero of our story. Like John the Baptist, we are to decrease and Jesus must become greater in our lives.
