When we are young, we can't do much.
When we are old, we just can't do much.
So, we have a "productive time" ... or "prime of life" when we are between young and old. This is when we think we can do alot.
We can't.
We think that we can. But, look at Jesus at the "prime-age" of His life:
John 5:19
Jesus gave them this answer: "I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; ..."
John 8:28
So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am the one I claim to be and that I do nothing on my own but speak just what the Father has taught me."
John 5:30
"By myself I can do nothing;"
Have we learned it? Do we know that what Jesus said was true for Him is no less true for us?
John 15:5
"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."
