We are one family in Christ -- one Body. We need to act like this. We need to do life like Jesus did life while on earth -- and I would say as He does it now through people who are obedient to Him.
We are to love God and love people. We are to choose Jesus over Self every single day -- take up our cross daily. Deny Self daily. Love the unlovables -- whoever they are where you live. We are to enter into relationship -- it is through relationships, friendships where the Spirit can work. One on one (that was my husband's sermon title today -- great sermon. If you want to read the notes or watch it, click here).
And when we see a wrong we need to speak up. Speak always with respect. Speak always with kindness. Remember -- every single human is loved by Jesus. Humans are not our enemies. The devil is. The world system is.
We don't have time to waste our energy on luxury and indulgent living. God has things for each to do -- works that were created for us specifically before we were even born.
We need each other. We need to build each other up. We need to hold each other accountable. Let go of your dreams and just live in the center of God's will. He knows what will make your heart sing! Trust Him! Trust Him!!
