Bear Fruit That Remains – Holy Fifty Days – Week 7, Day 3

Gospel Reading: John 15:12–16

Focus Verse: “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain.” (John 15:16, NKJV)

Meditation

We are chosen for a purpose: to love, to act, and to bear fruit that lasts. True discipleship is rooted in the Vine and branches into eternity.

Early Church Fathers’ Saying

“I chose you… to confer on you the ability to reach forward to what is greater, and to bear fruit unto God.”

– St. Cyril of Alexandria

Practical Practice

You, as the image of God, are called to lead others to Christ by imitating Him. Your goal today: Go and bear fruit by being patient when it’s hard, generous when no one notices, and loving when it’s inconvenient. Let someone see Christ in you without a sermon.
