We are united as one in the Lord.
Read: Romans 12:4-5
Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function, 5 so it is with Christ’s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other.
The boundaries the Lord has set up are for our protection.

Opening his mouth, Peter said:
“Most certainly I understand now that God is not one to show partiality [to people as though Gentiles were excluded from God’s blessing], 35 but in every nation the person who fears God and does what is right [by seeking Him] is acceptable and welcomed by Him.
God accepts you as you are.

Be alert and on guard. Don’t allow words of strife and envy into your home, business or life. Walk in love and joy.
Read: Proverbs 10:11 and Deuteronomy 6:5-7
The words of a good person give life, like a fountain of water,
but the words of the wicked contain nothing but violence.
You must love the Lord your God with your whole mind, your whole being, and all your strength.
6 These words I am commanding you today must be kept in mind, 7 and you must teach them to your children and speak of them as you sit in your house, as you walk along the road, as you lie down, and as you get up.
It may be hard but when we forgive but it takes us from being a victim to being victorious.

We must come together and help one another to build community. Don’t be a lone ranger.
Read: Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
Two are better than one because they have a more satisfying return for their labor; 10 for if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and does not have another to lift him up.
Recently, some dear friends of mine opened up their home to me and gave me a Morsels of Kindness gathering. They asked me to show up with my books and what happened next was truly awesome. God gave me the opportunity to share a Morsel of Kindness with each person present and God blessed them each with a special word just for them. It was amazing and humbling at the same time. I enjoyed the opportunity to be present with them during this time.
My friend Pat, of Pat’s Delites, made delicious mini “morsel” desserts for the guests at the end of the event. Though it was difficult, God blessed me with some strong will power to resist the temptation to eat them all! If you’d like to follow Pat Delites, you can find them on Instagram and Facebook.
God is so good!
