“Connecting the Dots”
Sometimes teachers use “connect the dots” art work to reinforce the learning of numbers or letters. Remember how that works? There a picture partially drawn, with dots placed at strategic points. You complete the picture by connecting the dots in order, one by one. This Sunday we’re going to “connect the dots,” as it were, to get a more clearly defined picture of what it means to be a growing, developing, “fruit-producing” follower of Jesus.
See you there.
—— Pastor Schmidt
8This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. 9“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. 14You are my friends if you do what I command. 15I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. 16You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. 17This is my command: Love each other
Celebrate
Connect
