I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
What can a branch do without a vine? Nothing! When you think your something, then God is not everything. And, God cannot be everything until you become nothing. But don't' worry about it, because God specializes in making something out of nothing.
