IMITATING CHRIST

Romans 15:1-8

http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Romans+15:1-8

Dear Father, God of steadfast love,

May the strength you give us be used to bear with the failings of
those who are weak, not to please ourselves, but to please our
neighbor for his good, to build him up.

In this let us imitate Jesus, your Son, who did not please
himself, but lived as it was written of him, "The reproaches of
those who reproached you fell on me."

May you, our Father, the God of steadfastness and encouragement,
grant us Christians to live in such harmony with one another, in
full accord with Jesus Christ, that together we may with one voice
glorify you, the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

In the name of Jesus and according to his command. Amen.
