“For whoever does the will of God, he is my Brother and Sister and Mother.”
One of the most fascinating and bizarre things I’ve experienced in my walk with Christ is the almost instantaneous and deep family-like connections I’ve come across with mere strangers.
Its in the sense of motherly love I experience from a group of women I randomly meet at Starbucks, only to later find out they are fellow believers.
Its in the conjoined grief I feel when I get to pray with a girl I’ve never met before at church; the instant connection and bond of sisterhood.
I can’t begin to express how many Brothers & Sisters in Christ I’ve come to meet and only in a matter of minutes feel a deep spiritual bond and connection to them, as if I’ve known them for ages. Its an intreguing phenomenon to feel intense love for someone who is, essentially, a complete stranger.
Thank you for binding your Family, Lord. I pray that this phenomenon would continue, and that the world would truly You by our love for one another.
