Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.
Romans 15:7
Think
How then does Christ accept us? The simple answer: by not rejecting us. Jesus did not reject those who were culturally despised. He went to them. He talked with them. He helped them. He blessed them. There was the tax collector, the woman with many husbands, the diseased, the disabled, the young and the poor. Jesus accepts us as sinners. How much more should we accept…and not reject the homeless? It might look like us going to them, talking with them, helping them and blessing them.

Breath Prayer Explanation
Breath prayers are a form of contemplative prayers linked to the rhythm of your breath. Breath prayer has been practiced in the church for thousands of years and is a 1 to 2 sentence prayer you silently pray 5-10 times consecutively throughout the day as you inhale and exhale.
It’s a centering prayer for our minds and hearts to remember God within all circumstances. Breath prayer is a simple yet transformative spiritual practice!
An example of a breath prayer is, “Father, you are Holy” (prayed silenty as you inhale), “Help me be holy” (prayed silently as you exhale).
