“Then a demon-oppressed man who was blind and mute was brought to him, and he healed him, so that the man spoke and saw. And all the people were amazed, and said, “Can this be the Son of David?” But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “It is only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons.” Knowing their thoughts, he said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and no city or house divided against itself will stand.”

Matthew 12:22-25 ESV

All,

This stands out because Jesus says, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and no city or house divided against itself will stand.” “United we stand, divided we fall”. Are Christians unified? We would be if God was first in our lives. Unfortunately, Race, Politics, Sex, Power, Money all compete for God as the top and thus become divided. How is this solved? I think getting a diverse CLC group together with people who struggle with all of the above is a good start. Please pray that we and our friends see everyone as the child of God that they are. Please pray for Jeff.
