The Heavenly Father is the gardener,
you are the vine that bears the fruit,
God will cut the barren branches,
close to the ground but save the root.
But all the branches that bear fruit,
will all be pruned with loving care,
they will become much more fruitful,
there branches will never be bare.
You are clean because of the words,
that I have already spoken to you,
you must always remain within me
and I will remain within you too.
A branch can not bear fruit alone,
it must always remain on the vine,
remain with me to bear your fruit,
and flourish with this love of mine.
Apart from me you will be nothing,
you are like a branch thrown away,
withering and tossed in the fire,
burned into ashes of charcoal gray.
If you let my words remain in you,
what you wish for will come true,
bearing fruit to my Father's glory,
and to show you are my disciples too.
As the Father loved me, I love you,
obey my commands, remain in my love,
I tell you so your joy is complete,
love each other,God commands above.
Greater love has no one then this,
laying down your life for a friend,
you are my friends, not servants,
we shall be together in the end.
Everything I learned from the Father,
I have made it all known to you too,
go and bear fruit that will last,
love each other is my command to you.

Great!
Awe! Great way of putting scripture into a poem that is beautiful and makes sense for those that might not understand. I especially loved:
A branch can not bear fruit alone,
it must always remain on the vine,
remain with me to bear your fruit,
and flourish with this love of mine.
That was so beautiful. God definitely had a hand on this one. Great write. -

Sandy this will go down in my favorites of all times for this is the season that God does bring his glory in us all and this is the testimony for all us hetherns to hear and bestow the truth for without the vine we are prunes...
the light does reflect here upon the dark
Amen, amen, amen
praise Him by your pen
Halielueha in all you all dear friend
