Scripture:
Acts 10:28
"And he said to them, 'You yourselves know how unlawful it is for a Jew to associate with or to visit anyone of another nation, but God has shown me that I should not call any person common or unclean.'"
Reflection:
Peter had to overcome deep-seated biases to participate in God's work. God calls us to see others through His eyes, valuing every person as He does. What prejudices or biases might be hindering you from fully participating in God's work?
Prayer:
Father, forgive me for any prejudices or biases that I hold. Help me to see others as You see them, with love and compassion. Break down any barriers in my heart that prevent me from loving others fully. Amen.
Action:
Identify one area of bias in your life. Take a step today to learn more about someone different from you, whether through conversation or reading, and ask God to change your heart.
