VELCRO CHRISTIANS

Velcro is an amazing invention with two sides. One side is softer and has an almost fuzzy texture. The other side has a harder, rougher texture. When it is put together, it creates a strong bond. Each side alone doesn’t have enough strength to hold a feather to the wall. It can hold a grown man up on a wall if enough of it is used together. Psalms 133:1: “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!”

Christians are a lot like Velcro. We are all different, but when we are put together, we have a strong bond. When the softness of Christian compassion and forgiveness bonds with the hardness of determination and boldness, it becomes a good blend. There is nothing we cannot accomplish as a body of believers if we have enough faith.

The true bond of Christianity can even be strong enough to lift up a man. It is our responsibility to lift up someone who is down. When we bind together as Christians, as the body of Christ, we are stronger than we are as individual Christians. I Thes 5:11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

We are called to walk in unity with Christ and with other believers. Now more than ever, we need to stand together in the bond of unity and walk in love. The best is yet to come. Pray for unity in the body of Christ.

BE BOLD, BE BRAVE AND KEEP YOUR GOD FOCUS.
