>May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of 
>unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart 
>and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
>--Romans 15:5-6
>New International Version
>
>THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE...
>Unity comes from God's Spirit as we follow Jesus. But unity has a purpose 
>much deeper than our getting along with each other. Jesus prayed that we 
>would be one so the world would know that God sent him (John 17). We want 
>to be united so our praise can bring glory to God. Unity is far more than 
>a goal, it is a process through which the world learns of Jesus and we 
>glorify the Father who sent him and saved us. Can you think of anything 
>more fundamental to our faith than that!
>
>MY PRAYER...
>Great and Almighty God, Eternal Strength for all who call on your name, I 
>apologize and ask your forgiveness for everything I've done and every word 
>I've spoken that has hurt someone in your family and brought a wound to 
>the unity of your Church. Please bless my efforts as I seek less of my 
>will and more for your glory and the encouragement of others. Through 
>Jesus I ask it. Amen.
