The following story is taken from St. John 15:1-27.
In the heart of Jerusalem, amid the winding streets and bustling marketplaces, a group of disciples gathered with their beloved teacher, Jesus of Nazareth. They had journeyed together for many months, witnessing the miracles he performed and hearing the profound teachings he imparted.
As they sat together in the Upper Room, Jesus spoke to them with words of comfort and assurance. He knew that their hearts were troubled, filled with uncertainty and fear about the future. But he also knew that he had come to bring them peace, a peace that surpassed all understanding.
"Abide in me," Jesus said to his disciples, his voice gentle and reassuring. "As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit."
