John 15:18-21
"If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me.
It's amazing that we have been chosen to do God's will. Together we will make a difference. The peace of our community relies on never giving up. If love is there for Christ, then love is there for you. You have seen miracles and know that without God, where would we be. I ask God to soften our hearts. Don't harden them. Let love be present in our relationship. Don't let it whither away. Keep hate out of our hearts. We are chosen for God's mission. Today is going to be a good day. Be blessed and know that you are loved.
