Sitting With the Words of Jesus
- I am convinced that it is more important and beneficial for the Word of God to get through me than for me to get through the Word of God.

Sitting With John 15
Observations
1. Life comes from Father God through Jesus to me by my connection to Jesus. This is abiding. (v.1) Abiding = Connection
2. Good enough is not Jesus’ standard. Pruning is necessary (v.2)
3. Abiding, i.e. being connected to Jesus such that his life flows from him to me is the only way to live a meaningful life of righteous legacy. (vv. 3-5)
4. If I am disconnected from Jesus, the natural consequence is to wither and ultimately die. (v.6)
5. Jesus is for us...for God’s glory (v.7-8) This is an everyone promise. Connection is how your prayer life is transformed and sustained. Answered prayer is a natural consequence of connection. (v.16)
6. The only pathway to authentic connection is love (vv. 9-17) Spiritual maturity is not measured in knowledge, it is measured in love.
Love Jesus Most. Your measure of love for Jesus is shown by your love for others.

GIVING
Our goal here at Cold Springs Church is transparency. We operate solely on the generosity of those who call Cold Springs home and give regularly to support the mission and vision we are committed to carrying out. God invites us to worship Him in all areas of our lives, including the way we spend our money. Because it is an act of worship, God is more interested in the shape of our heart than the size of our gift.
