What I Really WantSample

We have a tendency to put people in categories: fans of this team, players of that sport, followers of that influencer. And when we put each other into groups, we tend to find a reason to be against the groups we aren’t in. It’s part of our human nature! But living like we are “against” others is a terrible way to live. God wants more for us. And this verse from Colossians describes what he wants us to identify as: people who are FOR mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Instead of shrinking down your world to who you are against, consider how you can live FOR the people around you in the way you see them and see the world. Pick one person who you have seen different from you or “against” you in some way. What is one way you can be for them today.
