    In this Gospel Jesus compares himself to the true vine. There are many points I want to draw your attention to. This metaphor of the vine would be well understood by the people. There were vineyards where people would grow grapes for wine.

    People would understand that vines were frequently pruned to produce much more fruit. Anyone who grows plants or interested in growing gardens is familiar with the concept of pruning to ultimately make the plant more beautiful or more productive.

    The comparisons are obvious, that many times we are pruned when our goals don’t happen. Just to be clear not all our challenges and struggles are examples of being pruned but some are. We are being pruned not as punishment but to assist us reach our full potential.
