Heavenly Father, thank you for your grace, kindness, and mercy. I know that the foundation of reconciliation begins between you and each of me. But you have also called us as Christians to pursue reconciliation whenever we experience conflict or division with each other.
Forgive us Father for the division we create in our churches.
Help us to work through unresolved conflict and extend grace and kindness to one another.
We ask that the unity of the Spirit would prevail so that we could live in such a way that brings glory to your name and bears fruit in the body of Christ.
2Co 5:18-19 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
