Christ created unity out of hostility.

Have you ever felt as though your life is nothing special? Does it seem as though nothing you do is all that important? God sees it differently. Just as a skilled potter can take a formless lump of clay and turn it into a beautiful vase, so also God accomplishes extraordinary things in our world using ordinary people like us. This week we focus on how we have been united in Christ. Our world offers us two options when it comes to unity: uniformity or division. Either we must be identical or we are enemies. However, through Christ, the impossible happens. All of human diversity is brought into one family, the body of Christ.
