Today’s scripture: Galatians 3:28-29
We are “all one in Christ Jesus.”
Read the first verse again. There is no distinction between individuals in God
the Father’s eyes. As long as we’re followers of God the Son, Jesus Christ, we
are one.
We can—and must—look beyond race, gender, socio-economic background, and see
the hearts of our brothers and sisters in Christ. Our faith should transcend
everything else that makes us difference.
Think about it. How often have you met a stranger and then, when you found she
was a fellow believer, you instantly connected? Wherever we go, we can
instantly find kindred spirits in a Bible-believing church.
I just love that!
And then in the next verse, we’re reminded that we’re heirs to God’s promise.
And what is that promise? Redeemed hearts and eternity with Him.
We aren’t outcasts. We aren’t distant relatives. We aren’t afterthoughts. We
are heirs of God. We are His dearly-loved children.
Take a moment and thank God for His promises. And for His Fatherly love.
