Help me be obedient when I don’t understand All Your words are truth, on them I take a stand It is not an option for me to pick and choose By Your law I fall or stand, who can be excused? You made a way, where there is none, to forgive my sin At the cross on Calvary is where I must begin Sin was judged and paid for, by a blameless One So I can stand forgiven by Your Holy Son Now Christ lives in me, His Spirit is my guide If I am obedient, I’ll in the vine abide If I remain in Him, He will remain in me Then I’ll bear much fruit, to my Father’s glory Debbie Furey October 2, 2021 John 15:5–8 – “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.” John 15 It is by being obedient and obeying the Lord’s commands that we will remain in His love. That is how we show our love for Him. We don’t always have to understand, but we do have to be obedient. The Holy Spirit in us gives us the power to do that.
