Fighting for unity in a divided world

Good morning Brothers, Happy Sunday! God loves you. I love you. Praise God for waking you up this morning. God has a blessing for you today! I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. I will glory in the Lord; let the afflicted hear and rejoice. Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together.(‭‭Psalms‬ ‭34‬:‭1‬-‭3‬). Let’s sing, Praise him, praise him! Jesus, our blessed redeemer! Sing, O earth, his wonderful love proclaim! Hail him, hail him! Highest archangels in glory!Strength and honor give to his holy name! Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard his children. In his arms he carries them all day long. Praise him! Praise him! tell of his excellent greatness. Praise him! Praise him! ever in joyful song. This morning’s verse is from Mark 3:25. If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. We live in an increasingly divided world. There's a line that's been drawn in the sand. It seems like half of us are on one side, and half of us are on the other side. And this breaks the heart of God. We have to always remember to keep the Good News of Jesus. The Good News is that through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, God has become King-and His Kingdom is coming on Earth as it is in Heaven. It is not just a "get out of jail free" card. The Gospel is an invitation to be rescued from sin and restore creation. Because Jesus has been Good News for us, we are called to become Good News for others. Even in political conversations. Even with people we disagree with. Even with people we don't particularly like. Because we know that no matter who sits in leadership, our God is still King. God, help me to follow the example of Jesus and become Good News for others in the same way that He has been Good News for me. Every day you have a choice to pursue unity. So, how is God calling you to foster the spirit of unity today? God loves you. Have a blessed day.
