Happy Thanksgiving

In my devotions this morning I read this passage:

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

John 12:24

Today, most of us will enjoy full and varied feasts that are possible because, at a most basic level, a “corn of wheat” was buried, died, and resurrected in order to produce a fruitful harvest.

This is a great reminder to us! If we will die to ourselves, and yield ourselves to Christ’s life in us and through us, we too will bear much fruit.
