“Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.” (Romans 12:16)
God calls us to be at peace with one another, to live in harmony, to accept people of all social positions because no one class is better than another. God loves all His people equally - rich or poor.
Everyone is called to love as God loves, completely and without condition. Love has no requirements it just is. Just as God gives His love to us, we are to give His love to others.
Earthly riches do not determine the quality of the heart and soul. Grace does. Earthly riches are wonderful and a blessing to be shared freely since they were freely given.
No one should be conceited because no one is greater than God Who humbled Himself to become man and died a gruesome death for the forgiveness of sins. He had only the riches in His Heart. Therefore, we should seek riches in our hearts, humble ourselves, and love all equally.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, may I love all Your children no matter their state in life. May I accept each person and see Your presence within them. May I never be conceited and humbly love as You love. Amen.
