The one who hears the Word and understands it will bear much fruit.
 
Almighty God,

You have planted all your commandments in our hearts.
We thank you for your life-giving Word.
We humbly ask you to make Your Word and commandments dwell and grow stronger in us and be rooted in the love of Christ that we may bear fruit and yield a hundred or sixty or thirty fold.

May Christ continue to inspire us to love You above all things, for You live and reign, forever and ever.

Amen.
