A daily devotional study journal

Drawing on the Presence and Power of the Holy Spirit day-by-day                                                        

I wonder if you have ever visited Hampton Court Palace and marvelled at what is reputed to be the largest grapevine in the world? It was planted there in 1768 by Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown, so is more than 250 years old. Its trunk measures a staggering four metres wide, with the longest rod 36.5 metres long. It is so huge that, in 1969 when a new glass house was required, it had to be constructed around the existing vine rather than the other way around.

The structure of the vine and branches influences the vine’s ability to withstand environmental stresses such as wind, rain, and pests. A strong, well-structured vine is more likely to survive and thrive in challenging conditions, leading to the production of more fruit.

If we spiritualise the last sentence, then that is exactly why I have written this devotional; because if we pay attention to the lessons of the vine, we will be better equipped to live through the challenging context of the days we are in.

This devotional contains daily Bible readings, teaching, and questions to prompt growth in your relationship with God. How you use it is up to you, but you will need a Bible or Bible app, notebook, and pen to write things down.
