As believers in Christ we belong together. We might not always get along or understand one another; however the Holy Spirit continues to bridge the gaps between people. Jesus said the Holy Spirit will teach us all things. On the day of Pentecost, though the people were from different cultures and spoke different languages, the Holy Spirits arrival made them a new community, the church. We are one body, unified by the death and resurrection of Jesus. When the spirit of God lives in us, we have the strength to be kind when others are irritable or mean to us. We can be patient with a good attitude when things are not going the way we planned. We can speak works of encouragement to someone who needs it. God can use us because we are strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in our inner man. It is God’s will that we touch others who need God’s love. His light should shine through us. With the help of the Holy Spirit we can reach out in compassion and bring hope to hurting people. God encourages his people to be kind to one another, even enemies. Read today’s scriptures in “Food for the Soul” and keep them in your heart. Please let us be kind to one another, it’s free. Much Love…
EMMANUEL
