Did you know that God’s greatest plan for humanity is reconciliation? God grants relationships a special significance…He wants you to be close to Him and close to your family and loved ones.
Jesus perfectly lived out this message: He was close to His Father, and He was always inclusive. He drew near to those who didn’t fit inside the box, even those who were totally rejected.
Reconciliation removes what’s blocking our relationship with Him and others.
Is there something that’s blocking your relationship with God or with others? If so, I invite you to bring it to His feet. He is able to overcome what is impossible for you, all your limits…because they aren’t His.
The Lord expresses what He desires of us in His Word when He says, “‘As I have loved you, so you must love one another.’” (John 13:34, NIV)
Reconciliation is supernatural work. Your capacity to really love others flows from the presence of God within you.
By first drawing near to the One who can completely restore your heart, you then can start to change your tough relationships into relationships overflowing with peace.
I invite you to pray with me…“Lord, as this week begins, I want to please Your heart, to do Your will, to always grow more in You. I receive Your grace to walk in reconciliation, to forgive, to love sincerely. Lord, accomplish this supernatural work of reconciliation in and through my life! In Your name, amen.”
