每当我看到大自然的树木植物时，我就会想起主耶稣的话。
【约15:1】[和合本]“我是真葡萄树，我父是栽培的人。
[WEB]“I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
【约15:2】[和合本]凡属我不结果子的枝子，他就剪去；凡结果子的，他就修理干净，使枝子结果子更多。
[WEB]Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
【约15:3】[和合本]现在你们因我讲给你们的道，已经干净了。
[WEB]You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
【约15:4】[和合本]你们要常在我里面，我也常在你们里面。枝子若不常在葡萄树上，自己就不能结果子；你们若不常在我里面，也是这样。
[WEB]Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself, unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.
【约15:5】[和合本]我是葡萄树，你们是枝子；常在我里面的，我也常在他里面，这人就多结果子；因为离了我，你们就不能作什么。
[WEB]I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
【约15:6】[和合本]人若不常在我里面，就像枝子丢在外面枯干，人拾起来，扔在火里烧了。
[WEB]If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
【约15:7】[和合本]你们若常在我里面，我的话也常在你们里面；凡你们所愿意的，祈求就给你们成就。
[WEB]If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.
【约15:8】[和合本]你们多结果子，我父就因此得荣耀，你们也就是我的门徒了。
[WEB]“In this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
