Today in the One Year Bible, we read from Ephesians 2:1-22. Paul tells us that God has made us one... taking Jews and Gentiles, and erasing the walls that separated us, making us one body in Christ.
But we know that the enemy has come and split us up again. We're not one body today... there are deep wounds in the body of Christ. If we read the prayer that Jesus prayed for ME AND YOU specifically, we know that it was His intent (and still is His intent) for us to be one, as He and the Father are One.
So let's work tirelessly to heal those wounds. Let's reach out to our brothers and sisters in Jesus, no matter what their background or denomination might be, and help bring us all back together again. Let's pray that those wounds will be healed... and that we'll find a way to love one another once more... and to be truly one, as He and the Father are One.
God, thank You for making it clear that You want us to be one. Please help us work to that end.
