Vines can be invasive, covering native trees. In John 15, Jesus Christ compares Himself to a vine with His disciples as fruitful branches, pruned for increase productivity. By abiding in Jesus, disciples produce spiritual fruit: love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, self-control.

God is the Judge, and vengeance belongs to God, not us.

Are your life efforts just vanity, striving after the wind, and fail to satisfy?

Christ calls us to be more than conquerors, to be victorious. Seek God and His Kingdom, with God's spirit and power.
