God never wants us to be separated from him. Today’s Gospel reading is one of the most beautiful and powerful imageries in the Gospel of John, depicting how God always wants to relate with us and the kind of response that is expected of us. This is the imagery of the relationship between the vine and the branches. This kind of relationship requires reciprocity. But we may ask: reciprocity in what sense?
