John 10:16
“I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold. These also I must lead, and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd.”
We all start out in life believing that we are at the center of the universe. Sadly, some people never seem to get beyond this way of living. The ego feeds on being separate from others…inflating its own self-importance. It wants me to believe that I am on the winning side…that I am in the “in” group. Of course, that would mean that someone else is not. When we exclude we are clearly not being Christian. Jesus insisted that all will be one flock and that He will be the one shepherd. This is what the kingdom of God is about. For this to happen…egos will have to diminish. Ask yourself, “How can I change in order to accept everything as belonging?”
