Recently, I’ve started doing 60 second devotional vlogs on Tik Tok (a social media platform). It was never my intent to start yet another thing, but God would see differently. I’m so glad my plans are not God’s plans.Yes, it’s entitled #DearSis but I believe it can be helpful to men too.
I’m sharing today’s devotional minute in the hopes it’ll help someone to know your struggle isn’t in vain. See, we sometimes curse our struggle, turn our back on God and become angry at everything and everybody. However, I’ve come to understand, the harder the struggle of the vine makes better the wine.
If you have a minute, check it out and if you’re on Tik Tok, follow me.To read the devotional from 2018 on this subject, click HERE.
1“I am the true grapevine, and my Father is the gardener. 2He cuts off every branch of mine that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more. 3You have already been pruned and purified by the message I have given you. 4Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me.” — John 15:1-4
