Paul was very passionate about building unity within God's communities. He reminded us as we read his letter today that we are not just to try and make ourselves happy or serve ourselves because not even Jesus tried to make himself happy! instead, Jesus taught us that if we want to be considered great among one other then we need to serve one another. We, being readers of Paul's letter, are to receive the same teaching.Paul also warned the readers about people who start fights between believers, pointing out that those people are not serving Jesus, but are serving themselves! Lastly, Paul shared his desire for God's communities to be wise about what is good and not to have anything to do with what is sinful.In our discussion for daily application we will talk about being transformed by the renewing of our mind. Sinful thoughts, such as those started by people who want to start fights, pave the way for division within God's body of believers. We need to be mindful of anything that causes us to be divisive. Instead, we need to pay attention to every opportunity to foster unity between one another, such as when I shared that I look for identifying signs such as jewelry or tattoos of crosses, Bible verses, etc. that people wear that let me know they are a believer, and then strike up a conversation with that person, commenting that we are one in the body of believers. As we close our reading session today I pray "that God will help you work together to follow Jesus so that it will seem like you have one heart and together you can show God's greatness. Amen!" If you enjoyed today's reading and feel like God has lit YOUR light please click the LIGHT button (it looks like a thumbs up or a heart) and consider subscribing to or following my channel, if you have not done so already.If you know someone who might be interested in reading the Bible with me this year please SHARE today's reading with them!
