I have been pretty amazed lately how God’s plans seems to include,
even require, such a diversity of people – different languages,
histories, upbringing, education, life experiences, view points,
talents, gifts…
In the natural, these differences usually lead to misunderstand,
distrust, conflict, fear, hatred, wars  –
God has given us a singular commonality, one thing that makes us
alike, and with that one thing, all our differences, all those things
that should separate us, come together to serve the Creator of the
universe, to serve His will and fulfill His plan – That one thing is
what we have each found at the foot of the cross, that one thing is
the only singular thing He had to give – His only begotten Son.
