The first time I saw him, he sat at a table across from me, one of his legs constantly moving almost subconsciously, as though he was warming up for a run. It was a habit of his restless disposition to stand and gallop. I asked if we could talk about his mission in life. He joined me in the back seat of the car, that leg still moving.

That was Nabeel Qureshi. He hated sitting still. He was a man with a mission, ready to run. Sadly, for us, he died Saturday at a young age of 34 after a year of battling stomach cancer. Nabeel, who was raised in a Muslim-American family and converted to Christianity after a fellow college student sparked his interest in Christianity, worked with me in Christian apologetics.

apart from me you can do nothing”
(John 15:5)

Reflection:
Time and again I return to Jesus teaching of the Vine. It is the first passage of Scripture that I intentionally studied and it still continues to inspire, refresh and delight me. It is filled with the grace and love of the Lord.

The key to life is our relationship with the Lord Jesus. If we are ‘connected’ to Him then His life flows into us. We also have access to our new identity and to the spiritual blessings that God has given to us in Christ.

As His life impacts ours and His Spirit flows into and through us then He brings transformation and new fruit – different to that which we produced through our old…
