The Art Of Neighboring: Week TwoSample

God’s people are meant to bless the world. Part of that means sharing life with, even loving, those who don’t understand our faith.

Pray

Lord Jesus, no human ever loved his enemies as perfectly as you did. Thank you that while we were still hostile to you, you loved us.

Read

God blesses all his creatures with innumerable gifts. His children should be like him in loving others generously, no matter who they are.

Matthew 5:43-48

Reflect

King David meditated on God’s character: “The LORD is good to all,” he exclaimed. “His mercy is over all that he has made” (Psalm 145:9 ESV). How can Christians show the world that kind of mercy?

Respond

Are you tempted to ignore those who seem too difficult to love? Start by praying for them. See how God leads you to share his blessings with your neighbors.
