MUTUAL ACCEPTANCE

MUTUAL ACCEPTANCE

Romans 14:1-16
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Romans+14:1-16

Dear Father, foundation of all our lives,

Make me compassionate and generous toward my brothers and sisters
in Christ. Let us welcome each other, and not dispute over
opinions. May I never pass judgment on a brother or sister, for you
have welcomed them. They are your servants. It is before you that
they stand or fall. And they will be upheld, for you are able to
make them stand.

Let us be fully convinced in our own minds about honoring certain
days, or about eating certain foods. Whether we honor a day or eat
a food, or whether we abstain, may we do it (or not do it) in
honor of you.

Thank you that none of us lives to self, and none dies to self.
Whether we live or die, we are yours! Thank you that Christ died to
this end: that he might be Lord both of those who have died and of
us who live. We know from what Jesus said: that all your saints are
alive to you.

In the name of Jesus, instill consideration for each other into
all of us. Amen.
