MONDAY: The Common Mistake
Reading: 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Prayer: Lord, just as Paul reminds us, if we "have it all together" but don't have love, we have completely missed the heart of the matter. Help me to have this kind of love for the people in my life—those closest and those even farthest removed. I know that this kind of love only comes from a deeper connection with You. Help me to commune with You in such a way that others feel that love overflowing.

TUESDAY: The Common Mistake
Reading: Romans 13:8
Prayer: Lord, help me to grow in love and avoid the "common mistake" that the Corinthian church in creating division and walls of hostility. I am indebted to Your love and grace—let that flow out of me to those with whom I interact each day. Reveal to my heart any biases or prejudices that I might be harboring—whether knowingly or even unknowingly and fill me with love for those that I have withheld that grace.

THURSDAY: The Common Mistake
Reading: Matthew 5:43-48
Prayer: Lord, thank You for Your Word and for modeling a counter-cultural reality. Help me to view my "enemies" through Your eyes and help me to walk in love. You have not called us to be weak, but to harness our strength to love those who do not love us in return. Give me courage to put my enemies on notice—that no matter what they toss my way, I will love authentically and pray fervently.

FRIDAY: The Common Mistake
Reading: Matthew 6:14-15
Prayer: Too often, Lord, we come to Your table asking for forgiveness—sometimes even with a casual sense of entitlement, and we harbor unforgiveness against someone who has hurt us or done something against us. Today, I'm reminded that I have sinned against You and I need Your forgiveness. Forgiveness is available, and You ask me to forgive in the same way. I declare that I can't do that without Your help. Give me courage to forgive others in the same way You have forgiven me. May my communion with You give me the added grace to forgive completely.

SATURDAY: The Common Mistake
Reading: Romans 5:1-8
Prayer: My heart is filled with such gratitude for Your love and mercy in my life. You invited me to Your table when You knew ALL of the things that I have done wrong. Forgive me for hindering and excluding others from Your table when You love them just the same as me. Help me to look past the shortcomings and even blatant sin of others to invite them to have a seat at Your table. When they sit at Your table—this changes everything. Forgive me when I've made it my job to police Your table and hindered others from coming to find healing and wholeness. Thank You for making more room at Your table.
