The ABIDE Podcast With Gretchen Stevenson
Devotion: Goodness
In this devotional episode of the Abide podcast, we reflect on the transformative work of God as our Divine Gardener. John 15:1 reminds us that God lovingly prunes the branches of our lives so that we can bear the spiritual fruit that glorifies Him—love, joy, peace, and, most beautifully, goodness. But this transformation only happens through the work of the Holy Spirit.
As we surrender to His leading, allowing Him to prune and shape us, we begin to bear the fruit of His power within us. It’s in our surrender that goodness blooms and God is most glorified. We’ll also meditate on the contrast between the fruit of the Spirit and the fruit of sin—how envy, hatred, and idolatry rob us of God's blessings. Join me in this time of devotion as we seek to grow in surrender and invite the Holy Spirit to cultivate a life that reflects the goodness of God and brings Him glory.
