ONE

RUTH 1:16 (CEB)
But Ruth replied, "Don’t urge me to abandon you, to turn back from following after you. Wherever you go, I will go; and wherever you stay, I will stay. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God."

GALATIANS 3:28 (CEB)
There is neither Jew nor Greek; there is neither slave nor free; nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Our connection with God through Christ transcends all other categorizations.

PRAYER
Welcoming God, I am grateful that you have made a place for me in your world. I confess that I'm not as generous in welcoming others as full partners. I can be so rigid. Help me to loosen up and to embrace people for who they are through you. I'm going to relate to people the way that you relate to them. Amen.
