Read: Ephesians 2:11-18
When I needed a locksmith to get into my car, I had a pleasant surprise. After he arrived and began opening my little Fords door, we began chatting and I recognized his warm, familiar accent.
It turned out that my rescuer was originally from Jamaicaa land Ive visited often and have grown to love. This changed a negative event into a positive one. We were in a small way kindred spirits because of our shared love for that beautiful island nation.
This struck me as a reminder of an even greater camaraderiethe joy of meeting someone new and discovering that he or she is also a believer in Christ.
In some places, this is not unusual because there are many believers. But in those lands where there are few believers, the joy of meeting someone else who loves Jesus must be even greater. Its thrilling to share together the amazing reality of the freedom from sin we have through Christ!
For all who know Jesus, there is a shared bond, a oneness in Christ (Gal. 3:28), a joy of fellowship that can brighten even the darkest day. Praise God that He brings a bond of unity to all who know Him as Savior.
Good morning, Mayor, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to The Mayor family.
Hope you had a restful Saturday.
