Daily Scripture Meditation - March 27


March 27

Jeremiah 7:23-28

Luke 11:14-23

“Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste and house will fall against house.”

If you spend any significant amount of time working with people, either at work or church, you are likely at some time to encounter conflicts and divisions.  Churches may be divinely inspired, but they are run by all-too-human men and women, which means they are vulnerable to misunderstandings and divisions. Nothing can more stressing than people at odds with each other or a community divided. Forgiveness and reconciliation can be lots of hard work, but the resulting peace can be well worth it.
