Romans 15

I've been sitting in Romans 15 as I have been planning and preparing for Love Cedar Valley (http://www.lovecedarvalley.com/) and as I consider Christ's call for His Church to be...

giving ourselves away. (Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. for even Christ did not please himself....vs. 2)

unified. (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 one mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. vs. 5-6)

humble. (Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God. vs. 7)

hope-filled. (May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. vs. 13)
