So you must remain in life-union with me, for I remain in life-union with you. For as a branch severed from the vine will not bear fruit, so your life will be fruitless unless you live your life intimately joined to mine. “I am the sprouting vine and you’re my branches. As you live in union with me as your source, fruitfulness will stream from within you—but when you live separated from me you are powerless.

Do you ever feel vacant and drained? Encountering Christ is both about feeling complete and no longer being empty. These guided audio meditations begin with reflecting on separating the voice of God from the emptiness of clanging cymbals.
