I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in Me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from Me you can do nothing. - John 15:5
Reflection: In a single word, be Saints! Holiness is the most powerful force that leads human hearts to Christ. Remember that verse of the Gospel about the vine and the branches. In the union of the branches with the one vine is the concrete source and the sure measure of one's apostolic activity.
- Pope John Paul II
Prayer: You are the vine, O Lord, and we are the branches. Keep me united to You and nourish me with Your love so that I may bear abundant fruit.
