How To Search For Family

Step 1: Take a reflective look at the people in your surroundings.

Step 2: Search complete.

Sure, the people around you may not have grandma’s trademark dimpled chin or Uncle Elmer’s pointy, misshapen ears (thank God), but from a faith perspective, we all may be more connected than we think.

Three questions for consideration:

1. Does the person look like you or any of your relatives?

Well, they have to, right? After all, we all look a little like our maker. (Genesis 1:27)

2. Is the person related by blood?

Absolutely. God brought us all together through the blood of Jesus. (Colossians 1:20)

3. Do you have a parent in common?

Totally. We have the same Father. (Romans 8:17)

If we look a little alike, we’re related by blood, and we have the same Father, I think it’s okay for us to act a little more like family. Don’t you?

Pass it on: we’re family.
