Continuing in God’s Kindness

What does it take for us to remain in the love of God? How do we go from unbelieving to believing and remain a part of God’s family tree?

God has shown his kindness to everyone who continues to walk in the kindness of God. Even when we have gone astray, God has grafted us into his family tree—making us his family.

Paul instructed the Roman believers in Jesus, saying, “Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off. And even they, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God has the power to graft them in again.” (Romans 11:22-23, ESV).

When we continue to live into the kindness of God, we remain in him. When we continue to believe, and to walk in that belief and trust in God, we are made a part of God’s family tree.

May we continue to walk in God’s kindness as we live out our faith in him, believing that we are a part of God’s family tree.

A Prayer for Mission: “Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love on the hard wood of the Cross that everyone might come within the reach of your saving embrace: So clothe us in your Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know you to the knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
