| Introduction | The Common Thread is a metaphorical view of what we all have spiritually in common. All Christians are made from the same material so therefore share a “common thread.” The common thread, of course, originates from God himself, with which he makes us in his likeness. Since God is love we are made to be love, evidenced by loving him and loving each other. Being the most masterful of artists, God has woven his thread to form the fabric of our new personal and corporate identities. Likewise, he has uniquely, beautifully and intentionally colored us according to our role in the creation of the ornate tapestry that displays his grand design. To fulfill our role, we must first decisively agree on the objective material that is common to all of us. Also, we must understand and work together according to our diversely colored perceptions and our personally unique gifts, thus taking our individual places in forming his grand design. |
