Read:
Jesus was never afraid to sit with the messy, the broken, the outcasts. He didn’t come for those who had it all together. He came for those who knew they didn’t.
The church should be a hospital for the hurting, not a museum of the perfect. Who in your world feels like an outsider? How can you embody the radical love of Jesus toward them?
This week, step toward someone who needs love even if they’re nothing like you. That’s what Jesus did.
Prayer:
Jesus, thank you for loving me in my mess. Help me love others with that same grace. Give me eyes to see the outcasts in my life and the courage to extend your welcome to them. Amen.
