“My mother and My brothers are the ones who hear the Word of God and do it.” Luke 8:21
In her devotion, Thelma Wells of the Women of Faith ministry, writes: “In the family of God, there is a bond deep inside that binds us one to the other. It is the glue of authentic love expressing itself in caring for, clinging to, and coming to the aid of each other without strings attached. It is the River of love streaming from the bloodline of our Savior that finds, fetches, and fastens us to one another.” Thelma Wells—Faith for a Lifetime, Daily Inspirations for Women of Faith
Such beautifully written truths. All humans long for connection because we were made for relationship with God and others. The body of Christ is such a beautiful thing. Even though we are imperfect people serving a perfect God, we benefit greatly by our connection with other believers. We draw strength from those of like-mind.
We are sinners, saved by His marvelous grace.
We are different shapes, sizes, and colors, but all created by our loving Heavenly Father.
I am beyond thankful for the Family of God. I pray for those who don’t yet know how special God’s love is, and how His children find strength not only in Him, but also in one another.
I’m so glad I’m apart of the family of God….🎶🎶🎶
Prayer: Heavenly Father, we honor You and give thanks for the opportunities we have to gather in one accord with Your people. Our fellowship is sweet when we are with those who love, follow, and serve You. What a beautiful sight it is to see Your people from across the world worshiping together. No language barrier exists where Your love is present. All customs and differences fade quickly from view when Your Spirit is free to work in the hearts and lives of Your followers. Help us to serve You with passion for the lost and hurting. In doing so, we will lift the Cross of Christ higher as we go, for Your glory and honor. I pray this in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen
