Honor everyone. Love the family of believers. Fear God. Honor the emperor.
We live in a world that can be awfully lonely whether you are at the top or at the bottom. We
need to affirm and embrace the idea that we are a family with every believer in Jesus Christ in
this world. Who could be lonely with such a family?
Join the Christian family today. They need you and you need them.
(1 Peter 2.17
NRSV)
Maxie Dunhan tells about a cartoon that showed a huge desk and an executive sitting behind it.
He is obviously the CEO of some company. Standing meekly on the other side of the desk is
another man dressed in work clothes. The man says to the boss, "If it's any comfort, it's lonely at
the bottom, too."
God of peace, bring your family of faith close to me. Amen.
