Apart from God you cannot, apart from you God will not.
Augustine

Augustine captures the essence of Jesus’ teaching in John 15 recognizing our dependence upon God coupled with our responsibility.

I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. (John 15:5)
