Devotional Reflection

Even though babies are needy, messy, and sometimes difficult, their parents treat them with care and kindness. When parents don't do these things with their babies, they are seen as dangerous and abusive. So, if new Christians are God's children, shouldn't we have more patience, be kinder with our words, show more understanding, and take better care of each other?

Prayer

Father in heaven, please pardon me and motivate me. I regret not doing more to provide for those new babies in Your family. Give me more tolerance for their mistakes and more passion for their struggles so they won't feel like they are traveling alone. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.

How wonderful it is to live in Christ! We invite other Christians to join us so that we can all share this blessing. We don't bring them in to look at their past mistakes or current problems. Instead, we do it to bring them into God's family and love them. God has welcomed us with kindness and grace. The same goes for new Christians.

Prayer

Father, please help me to be more patient and understanding with my fellow Christians, especially those who are new to the faith. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
