“Look with wonder at the depth of the Father’s marvelous love that he has lavished on us! He has called us and made us his very own beloved children. The reason the world doesn’t recognize who we are is that they didn’t recognize him.” -1 John 3:1 TPT

A Time to Think… 
“To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you.” -Dietrich Bonhoeffer 

A Time to Act…
We all have labels. But the labels that we make for others and ourselves are often not very nice. So, today take a moment to notice one label you’ve carried that God never gave you. Release it, and replace it with the truth of who you are in Christ.

A Time to Pray…
Precious Lord, thank you for calling me your child. Help me live today rooted in that calling, rooted in that incredible redemption of grace and hope. Help me to stop making labels for myself and others. Instead, may I embrace the ‘beautiful and honoring labels’ you have for me and others. AMEN.
