“Whoever Does The Will Of God
Is My Brother
And Sister And Mother”
Then his mother and his brothers came;
and standing outside, they sent to him and called him. A crowd was sitting
around him; and they said to him, “Your mother and your brothers and sisters
are outside, asking for you.” And he replied, “Who are my mother and my
brothers?” And looking at those who sat around him, he said, “Here are my
mother and my brothers! Whoever does the will of God is
my brother and sister and mother.”
God is pleased when we cherish our
family ties, but He also wants us to love all who have entered our spiritual
family by being born again. This is the family Jesus referred to when He
responded to the message that His mother and brothers and sisters were asking
for Him.
Loving the lost is our duty, but
loving those born into God’s family, no matter what their faults, should come
naturally.
We are all
family.
when we love His
family.
