ヨハネによる福音書 15:1

God loves you. Whoever you are, wherever you are in your life, God loves you! In this month, when we celebrate love, don't forget that God's love for you is greater than every other love. In this four day series, immerse yourself in God's love.

我們都希望生命能結出果子。不論對象是我們的至親，或是我們能力所及可接觸到的任何人，我們都渴望能對他們的生命產生持久性的影響。這種渴望盤桓在我們心底，不只希望我們的生命能結出果子就好，還希望能結實累累。這是一種自戀？還是上帝賦予的渴望？在這五日的讀經計畫中，好好來探索上帝對你的心意，並學習如何讓你的生命更加豐盛。

聖經常常提到有關成長的事，成長就是學習更多關於耶穌的事，更緊密地跟隨祂，更欣然地順服祂，以致於我們的態度與行為也越來越像耶穌。『成長：越來越酷似耶穌』這個讀經計劃，使用聖經中提到種子、樹根、植物、樹木及果實等經文，使用這些形像，來思考為耶穌而活的意義。

Are you experiencing a wilderness season, finding no water or oasis for your soul? What if this season held the greatest hope of all: to know God’s Presence intimately, authentically, and passionately? This devotional encourages you that this time is not wasted, though some days you feel as if you are going nowhere. Because no matter what terrain you tread, God is journeying with you as Comforter, Life-giver, & Friend.
