Week 4 | Day 1

Welcoming Without Conditions

Read: Romans 15:5-7
“Receive one another, just as Christ also received us.”  

How did Christ receive us? Let’s take a look at this verse: Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” While we were still sinners. We were received by Christ even in our wretched state. He makes room at His table for anyone who will say yes to His invitation.

We too ought to welcome, without prejudice, everyone who comes through our doors. We will not all look alike, act alike, pray alike and many of us will have ugly war wounds from life’s battles. Nonetheless, the Lord has called us to welcome all who seek Him. Practice today, welcoming the stranger into your world.

Spend some time praying for the people God has put on your heart.
