1 Corinthians 1:10

I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought. - 1 Corinthians 1:10

Dear Jesus,

Unity is in the center of your will. You want to see people united in love, faith and holiness. The devil knows this and works hard to whisper doubt and distrust into each of our minds. He makes us foolishly scheme to fulfill our ambitions and to overcome our fears. He loves it when we isolate, hate and distrust. He wants us to be surly loners. He loves party spirits and negative press campaigns. Forgive me Lord Jesus for succumbing to all of these at one time or another. Wash away my guilt and restore me to being an honest, grace filled lover of souls. Make me a champion for unity and unconditional love even with people who have hurt me. use your word to bind us all together.

Amen

Pastor Don Patterson

Any fool can separate from others. Wisdom and love unite people around God and his word.
