Today's Reading: Philemon

So if you consider me a partner, welcome him as you would welcome me. If he has done you any wrong or owes you anything, charge it to me. Philemon


What I heard from Jesus today is: Forgive, accept, welcome back!

If you have someone hurting you, betraying you and deserting you, do you think you can forgive him, accept him and welcome him back to you as your friend? It would be very, very difficult!

That is what Paul would like to teach us about today. He wrote to Philemon, a slave owner and church member at Colosse whom Paul had led to faith in Christ, to deal with his runaway slave, Onesimus. According to Roman law, a runaway slave could be punished by death. Paul pleads on Onesimus' behalf and asks Philemon to graciously receive Onesimus back as a fellow Christian. He asks Philemon to treat Onesimus with the same love and consideration he would have to Paul himself.

This seems a "mission impossible" for everyone. If you have someone hurting you like that, can you forgive, accept and welcome him back to your heart? I think Jesus is pleading you to do so now!

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to be able to forgive, accept and welcome back because of your love. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
