Here is a Vineyard-work to do, to trim and dress, that ye may not be found empty Vines, without the Spirit of Wine in your Cluster-Grape. For it is that which must give Vigour and Strength against the Evil Day, when you will see faintings of Heart and Spirit everywhere. ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/jane-lead/november-12-1678-a-call-into-the-vineyard/ ========================================================================
