I have a homepage I check from time to time offered byFree Dictionary dot-com. There a word for the day can be found. Today the word was feeder. I like the train of thought that followed.
Here’s the definition given: A branch that flows into the main stream.
And I thought if I tweak that just a tad and add some Scripture, I have a definition that I am growing into.
A branch that flows into and from the main stream.
John 15: 4 Abide in Me, and I will abide in you. The branch cannot itself produce fruit, unless it abides on the vine. Likewise, you cannot produce fruit unless you abide in Me. 5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for apart from Me, you can do nothing.source
A branch that draws Life and nutrients from the The Main Stream (The Vine) and flows out to others. :)
May it be so, Adonai! May it be so more and more every day.
John 16 (TLV) 33These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have shalom. In the world you will have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world!”source
In this world you will have trouble. Period. End of the sentence. You will. I will. I do. You do. And yet. Take heart.
Why? Because He has overcome the world!
Notice it is past tense.
Not I will overcome.
Not I may overcome.
Nope! I have He said!
Perhaps we can look our troubles squarely in the face today and say Perhaps I can’t overcome you. But that’s okay. Because He already has!
We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. There are over 3,500 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
