"May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had." -Romans 15:5 (NIV)
As humans, we have many different thoughts and opinions. Sometimes these differences are beneficial in helping us see diverse points of view and different solutions to problems. However, there are times when different opinions can be a stumbling block, even keeping us from talking and working together. We need to find ways to work together, especially for God!
When we are working for God, we need to be like-minded. We need to be centered on God and His will, asking God to give us a mindset like Jesus Christ. When our lives are focused on Him, we can act in God's love and show love for each other. We can be united in the purpose of seeking God and building His Kingdom. We may not always agree, but we can still support each other, encourage each other, and have the endurance that we need to find solutions to the challenges and difficulties that we face in life. Together, we can follow God to build His Kingdom!
Ask God to help you be like-minded in pursuit of His will!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for other believers that You have placed in my life. Help me to continue to seek Your will and be like-minded with others working for Your Kingdom. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
