Verse: I urge you, my brothers and sisters, for the sake of the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to agree to live in unity with one another and put to rest any division that attempts to tear you apart. Be restored as one united body living in perfect harmony. Form a consistent choreography among yourselves, having a common perspective with shared values.
Devotion: What “filter” do you view the world in? When Jesus lived as a man, he had a unique perspective. He viewed life on earth as someone who had experienced life in heaven. His unique perspective produced unique values. When trying to live in harmony with each other, we have to actively choose to view the world through Jesus’ “filter.” When we see the world as Jesus sees it, then we will value what Jesus values. Shared perspective + shared values = harmony among God’s people.
Prayer: God, give us new eyes today. Give us eyes to see the world as you see it. Help us value what you value and lead us into perfect harmony with your people. Teach us that “consistent choreography” so that we’re not constantly stepping on each other’s toes. Lead us in your peace. Amen.
