Read John 15:8
"My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit and prove to be My disciples."
Devotional
A healthy tree produces fruit. You know what kind of tree it is by what grows from it. The same is true for followers of Jesus. When Jesus is changing our hearts, it shows in the way we live:
- We become more kind.
- We forgive others.
- We serve people.
- We choose what is right.
Good works do not save us, but they show that Jesus is working in us. People should be able to see something different about our lives because we belong to Jesus.
