How have I discerned my vocation and mission in life? (refer to the elements in discovering the will of God)
What are the fruits that I am producing? And what are the fruits that I have not had yet?
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bear much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
