COLOR BLIND NOT COLORLESS!
I believe that, one of the biggest challenges in the church at the moment is our misunderstanding of what unity is about.
We are so worried about disunity that, we try to overcompensate by making everyone behave as the same people. But we are not.
Fortunately.
God is so dynamic that, he even makes every single snowflake unique from each other.
We are beautifully made different for a purpose;
TO MAKE THE VIRTUE OF LOVE RELEVANT!.
It is quite easy to love yourself. However, love is truly tested when you have to love someone who is completely different from you.
We are supposed to be color blind, but not colorless. Meaning, we should embrace our differences and yet synergize them to the point where they almost don't exist anymore.
God made different races. Should we recognize our differences? Yes!
What should we do with it? Use it. We are from different tribes with unique mannerisms for the sole purpose of variety and beauty. Let's recognize and utilize these specific gifts for specific tasks whiles maintaining the inderlining fact that, in Christ, there is neither Jew nor Greek.
Let's not fear our differences to the point of trying to make every one as the same as possible. It defeats God's original intent of " let every nation and every tribe" . We are the same spirit, manifested in different forms and shapes, colors and races. Be proud to be YOU! Unique and one of a kind. Relevant and essential.
God bless you for your audience.
