Romans 8:38-39

I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither present nor the future, nor powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is ours in Christ Jesus our Lord.

What of Today’s Verse…

Separation is something we fear whether it’s from a child, a parent, a sibling, a spouse, a friend, or from God. Because Jesus bore the separation from God, becoming and going to the cross, we can know we won’t have to ever be separated from God’s love.

Let us Pray:

Great Father of all peoples, thank you for loving me. Thank you for giving me the promise that nothing can separate me from your love. Please fill me with your Spirit and make me more aware of your accompanying presence in my life today. I pray in Jesus name. Amen.

Unity Of Life

With one voice, we proclaim the unity of all life.

In thought, word, and prayer, we proclaim our unity as creations of God. With one voice, from across a street or an ocean, in country after country, we reaffirm our unity of spirit.

Whether we are in an arid land or rain forest, on a coastal cliff side or a rolling plain, we contribute to a consciousness of our sacred kinship. We think and act with integrity toward one another. This shared intention continues to bond us whether we are near or far apart.

Our mutual respect for and appreciation of one another grow stronger. As we nurture empathetic ways to understand and to be understood, our love and compassion continually flow. We are energized by our unity of spirit, the unity of all life.

“Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous.”—1 Peter 3:8
