Brother...? Sister.....?

A dog pile of Christianity brotherly love. 
What happened to calling each other brothers and sisters in Christ! A new way I have been looking at those boys in church and body of Christ, not as prospective date. Some one pointed out to me that I needed to look at them as God's Creatures and Brothers in Christ. For that is what they are. When you start looking at them that way you can start a deeper relationship not only in a worldly way but spiritual one as well. 
A relationship to comfort, support, and hold each other in the walk and body of Christ. 
A giant group hug of my brothers and sisters.
I love these kids.


 I am in a time in my life where I am changing my thinking. The crushes I have liked is not the ones I like now.... Really I am not crushing on anyone. For it is a process into thinking about these boys I see everyday but don't really interact with as brothers. However I have always been friends is family person. If you were my friend then you are like my brother or sister.

 Isn't this how God wants us to be? Calling each other "Brother Smith" and "Sister Smith." Our older brothers, elders, professors call us younger siblings... brother and sister.  I believe and could bet that God smiles every time these older siblings call us "brother or sister"

My daddy is my brother in Christ and he is already with the Lord asking his questions. When a sibling is struggling we are told/ called to help them, embrace them and to be God's hands and feet to our brothers. Before I was even baptized into the family, brothers and sisters wrote stories about my dad and put together books for my siblings and me.

Sisters then and sisters now through Christ sat with me at my dad's funeral an personal relationship of sisters. I know there is a time when that you ever needed something another has lifted you up.

Why can't we call brother and sister giving us a reminder of our journey does not stop here. Our Journey leads to the gold finish line.

Now, Brothers and Sisters? Are you going to call some one brother in this new blood family through Christ?

  1. Nice job, Sister!

    It is always good to look at our relationships through spiritual lenses. God wants us to walk in the Spirit.
