Not only do you live in a world that invites you to see things one way, but even more, to distance yourself from people who see things any other way. It can be difficult to stick together as you encounter people with all kinds of thoughts, emotions, and opinions. However, sticking together is exactly what Jesus prayed for in his last days on earth in John 17. It's easy to be divided; unity takes effort. People of God have a unique opportunity to listen to God and stay together as the world around gets angry, places blame, takes offense, and casts judgment. A people committed to God who makes peace, lives steadily, listens slowly is so refreshing. Theologian N.T. Wright says, "The result of this will that the world will see, and know, that this kind of human community, united across all traditional barriers of race, custom, gender or class, can only come from the action of creator God." Unity, not uniformity, reflects God's very own undivided nature, is a sign of maturity, and is a daily practice. Ephesians 4:3 says, "Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit." What will your first step be to make every effort?
