John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.

The Holy Trinity is something many of us struggle with because we try to understand it fully; what Christ offers us is simple words to understand things.

If Christ is the vine who is growing and spreading producing the best fruit, then God is the one behind the scenes keeping things going.

Without a carer we would falter and probably fade away, but with the best carer looking out for us, we can thrive and share the wonderful relationship we have with God, Christ and the Holy Spirit without fully understanding how it all works!

Matthew 20:1 For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.

Heaven has open doors – open to anyone and everyone who is willing to accept Christ!

No matter how late you choose, or have chosen to follow Christ, you still get the same amazing gift of eternal life because God has offered it to us.

It is not based on how long we have been a Christian or how good you have been. This is a gift from God, through Christ and assisted by The Holy Spirit, for you!

Acts 12:13 Peter knocked at the outer entrance, and a servant named Rhoda came to answer the door.

After the Lord released Peter from the prison he wondered around a bit before realising he should be with the people who were praying for him.

But when he went to the house where they were praying, a servant girl came to the door to see who was knocking – being so surprised to see Peter, whom they were praying for, she ran inside without letting him in!

Sometimes in our lives we get too caught up in the things we are doing for God that we lose sight of the simple things we should also be doing for Him. Open the door and invite people in!

Daniel 5:11 There is a man in your kingdom who has the spirit of the holy gods in him. In the time of your father he was found to have insight and intelligence and wisdom like that of the gods. Your father, King Nebuchadnezzar, appointed him chief of the magicians, enchanters, astrologers and diviners.

I wonder what sort of introduction you would be given by the people you live close to…

We are called to be witnesses of God and of Jesus Christ. If we do not portray that to the people around us, then we are falling short of the mark.

Daniel had built up quite a name because he did not step away from God no matter what. He continued to be God’s light is a very corrupt society.
