Day 26:: Welcoming

(Late to blog again, sorry)

Soundtrack: "Love is Here" by Tenth Avenue North

"Daughter": He is calling her family, despite the fact that he didn't have to...he is embracing her as his own and seeing the beauty in what God has done through her. He had heard of her goodness.

Strangers in my life might be youth on the fringe becaue they don't fit in or are different in some way. They might be extended family members that I feel so FOREIGN to in every way except the fact that in some way, we are related. I need to be able to embrace these people as my own, allow them truly to be family to me.

God, allow Michael and I to have a home that can be a home to any. Let us be able to embrace the stranger and alien with your love. Thank you for Your example in Jesus. Help our home be a Grace Place for all. Give me an awareness and attentiveness to the stranger. Give me the courage to embrace.
