"Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor; not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, persevering in tribulation, devoted to prayer, contributing to the needs of the saints, practicing hospitality." -Romans 12:10-13 (NASB)
There are times in our lives when people and their actions drive us away. Sometimes the behavior that drives us away is a call for help. A quote by Audrey Hepburn reminds us that all people deserve love, respect, hope, and hospitality. She said, "People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed. Never throw out anyone."
Our actions can initiate the restoration and renewal that someone may need! We shouldn't just throw people out when they are in need. We should choose to be devoted in God's love. We should honor each other in God's spirit. When we are serving God, we have hope and a reason to persevere. Through devotion, love, and perseverance, we can show others what God is ready and willing to do in their lives. We can practice hospitality by welcoming others into God's family! As part of God's family, all people can experience restoration, renewal, revival, reclamation, and redemption! Praise God for salvation through Jesus Christ!
Offer hospitality by welcoming others into God's family of restored and redeemed people!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for You love and for the redemption and salvation offered through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Help me to be welcoming so others can join Your family and be redeemed as well! Through Jesus, the Redeemer, I pray, amen.
