Galatians 3:28 (NIV)
28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor
free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ
Jesus.
Wouldn't it be great if we could tear down all the walls
that divide us — racial, social, economic, and gender. The apostle Paul spent
his entire life trying to do just that: to tear down the walls that divided
people by bringing them to Jesus and the cross. There are no positions of
superiority or inferiority at the foot of the cross, only a place for those who
discover God's might displayed in sacrifice and God's love displayed even when
under attack at the hands of human cruelty. While the forces of culture and
human selfishness are always finding ways to divide us, we must remember that
in Jesus, and only in Jesus, can we be one.
Thought for today: What walls do I have restricting me?
