This vine does just fine as long as it has a grip on the tree up which it is climbing. As Christians, we will possess the supernatural power of God as long as we continually make sure our faith is in our Saviour and not in ourselves. What would happen if the vine attempted to shoot towards the sky without a tree or other structure to support it? It would collapse on itself. The structure of a vine does not allow it to stand on its own. Like the vine, we must be clinging to the cross if we are to become stronger; the closer to Christ you grow, the higher you will climb and the more beautiful to behold your life will become.
"I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing." -John 15:5
