--"Keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. " - grouppray

--THE Night before the death of Jesus, He prayed for His followers. May they "be one, Father just as you're in me and I am in you." (John 17:21-23). May they "be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me" (John 17:21-23).

Paul agrees. He urges us to "make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit" (Ephesians 4:3-4), and these can not be divided.

We who weep for Christ's body broken for our sin must not tear apart His body the church with our anger, gossip, and cliques. Better to let ourselves be wronged than be guilty of the scandal of church division.

--"Heavenly Father, help me do the best i can to be at peace with others. May I never separate what You've joined. In our Lord Jesus.' ~ amen"
