The branch can do nothing without the tree.I can do nothing without you, you are the tree,I am the branch,i can not bare fruit without the tree,but if i abide in the tree,therefore i can bare many fruits,but without the tree i am nothing,i am dead.

what i hope this peice shows people is that we need a firm ground to stand upon,we need to rely on the tree to hold us up.We all need a tree, cause we are the branches and we can't be held up without the tree,we'll wither away and die.we need a foundation.God is my foundation and he can be yours too and he can hold you up so you won't wither away.
